TMJ Pain Treatment
TMJ Pain is discomfort and dysfunction in the joint between the jawbone and the skull. Treatments for TMJ Pain typically involve a combination of physical therapy, dental splints, medication, and, in some cases, surgery to alleviate symptoms and improve jaw function. These interventions aim to reduce pain, decrease inflammation, restore function, and prevent further joint damage. Physical therapy might include exercises to strengthen and stretch the jaw muscles, massage to improve circulation, and techniques to enhance jaw mobility.
Treating TMJ Pain is appropriate for individuals experiencing jaw pain, difficulty chewing, jaw stiffness, or clicking and locking of the jaw joint. Results can often be seen shortly after starting therapy, depending on the condition and the specific therapies used. The duration of the benefits varies; however, many patients experience long-term relief after completing their treatment plan. If you are suffering from symptoms of TMJ Pain and looking for relief, please consider booking an appointment at Concierge Health and Wellness in Billings, MT, to learn more about your treatment options.
Individuals experiencing chronic jaw pain, stiffness, clicking sounds, or chewing difficulties could benefit from TMJ Pain treatments.
Some patients may notice pain and jaw function improvements shortly after beginning treatment, especially with interventions like physical therapy or dental splints.
The effects of treatment can be long-lasting, particularly if patients continue to follow prescribed exercises and care instructions after the initial therapy period.
Most non-surgical treatments for TMJ Pain have minimal downtime and few side effects. However, surgical interventions may require recovery, during which symptoms like swelling and restricted jaw movement can occur.
Healthcare providers must make a precise diagnosis before treatment. After treatment, it’s crucial to follow all post-treatment care instructions and continue with any prescribed jaw exercises or lifestyle changes.
Treatment for TMJ Pain can include dental splints, pain-relieving medications, physical therapy sessions focusing on jaw exercises, and possibly surgery in severe cases. Your healthcare provider will tailor the treatment for you.
