Why
TMJ Treatment?

 

Treatment for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders often begins with conservative, non-invasive approaches due to the varying causes and severity of symptoms. Common initial steps include self-care practices like eating soft foods, applying hot or cold compresses, and avoiding habits such as teeth clenching or gum chewing. 
 
Over-the-counter pain relievers, muscle relaxants, and anti-inflammatory medications may be prescribed to manage pain and discomfort. Physical therapy, which involves specific jaw exercises and techniques like ultrasound or TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation), can help improve jaw mobility and reduce muscle tension. For those who grind or clench their teeth, custom-fitted oral splints or mouthguards are frequently recommended to protect the teeth and reduce strain on the joint. 
 
If conservative methods are insufficient, more advanced treatments such as corticosteroid injections, Botox injections to relax jaw muscles, or minimally invasive procedures like arthrocentesis (flushing the joint) may be considered. In severe and persistent cases, surgical options, including arthroscopy or open-joint surgery to repair or replace the joint, might be necessary, though these are typically a last resort due to their increased risks. 
 
Behavioral therapies and stress management techniques, like counseling and meditation, can also play a crucial role in addressing underlying factors that contribute to TMJ pain.
