Structure first
We study how the jaw is built before anything else.
TMJ Causes
Most TMJ begins with how the jaw is built and how the teeth meet. Stress can worsen it, but it is rarely the root.
Dr. Frey looks first at structure: the shape of the jaw, the alignment of the bite, and how the two developed over a lifetime. Early mouth breathing, injury, and imbalanced bites all leave their mark.
Even teeth that look straight can close incorrectly. Stress and grinding add strain, but the underlying imbalance is what we work to understand and correct.

History leaves clues
Growth, injury, and past dentistry all shape the bite.
