TMJD or Temporal Mandibular Joint Dysfunction is a problem with the jaw joint, muscles, or ligament controlling jaw function. We will work with your oral care providers to assess and treat the musculoskeletal problems contributing to TMJD. Common symptoms of TMJD include difficulty opening wide, biting down, pain, popping of the joint, clicking in the jaw, and even pain around the ear.
Chiropractic treatment of TMJD may include physiotherapy of muscles and ligaments, and adjustments of the jaw joint. The spine may also play a role in why your jaw is having problems so chiropractic adjustments of the spine may be necessary.
Our thorough examination will include testing your mouth’s range of motion, joint function, muscle tone, and spine. The examination may include x-rays or advanced imaging depending on your symptoms. Treatments may include physiotherapy, adjustments, exercises, stretching, and dry needling, in addition to what your oral care provider is doing.
The specific treatments necessary for each case vary. The cost of TMJD treatment ranges from $65 to $150 and may require 6 or more treatments to resolve your TMJ pain.
We offer a variety of treatments to specifically address the cause of your TMJ pain. The amount of time varies depending on which treatment is necessary. Some TMJD treatments can be completed in 15 minutes while others take 20-30 minutes. The average time spent in our office treating TMJD is 20 minutes.
When you turn to us for effective chiropractic treatment for TMJ, you can expect to work with a TMJ chiropractor who knows precisely which areas of the spine require adjustment. We want to make you feel more comfortable in your daily activities. Contact us today to discuss your TMJ disorder and find out how we can help you feel better and restore function.
