TMJ Dysfunction Treatment: Alleviating Jaw Pain Effectively

February 6, 2024

In today's fast-paced world, stress can take a heavy toll on our bodies. One often overlooked area is the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which connects your jaw to the temporal bones of your skull. When this joint is affected, it can result in a condition known as TMJ dysfunction, causing pain in your jaw and the muscles controlling jaw movement. However, with the right treatment plan, this pain can be effectively managed. Delta Physiotherapy & Rehab offers specialized TMJ Dysfunction Treatment to help you live a pain-free life.


Understanding TMJ Dysfunction

TMJ dysfunction is a condition that can cause severe discomfort and pain, which can be temporary or last many years. It is often caused by a variety of factors including jaw injury, arthritis, and stress-induced grinding. Symptoms include pain around the ear, tenderness of the jaw, difficulty or discomfort while chewing, and aching facial pain.


How Delta Physiotherapy & Rehab Can Help

At Delta Physiotherapy & Rehab, we believe in a holistic and personalized approach to TMJ dysfunction treatment. Our team of experienced therapists will work closely with you to develop a tailored treatment plan to alleviate your pain and improve your quality of life.


Manual Therapies and Exercises

Our team of professionals uses manual therapies such as massage and manipulation to help alleviate the pain caused by TMJ dysfunction. We also prescribe specific exercises to strengthen the jaw muscles and improve joint function.


Use of Custom Orthotics

In some cases, the use of custom orthotics can be beneficial. These devices are designed to correct misalignments and provide support to your jaw, helping to reduce strain and discomfort.


Lifestyle and Dietary Advice

We also provide lifestyle and dietary advice to help manage your symptoms. This may include guidance on stress management techniques, diet modifications to include softer foods, and avoiding activities that strain the jaw like wide yawning and gum chewing.
