Understanding the Source of TMJ Pain:

Evidence-Based Chiropractic Approach

Are you experiencing persistent jaw discomfort, headaches, or difficulty opening and closing your mouth? These symptoms often indicate TMJ pain, a common condition that affects millions of individuals worldwide. At Midwest Chiropractic Center, we are dedicated to helping you understand the underlying causes of TMJ pain and providing effective relief to improve your quality of life. Our approach is rooted in evidence-based chiropractic care, ensuring the most up-to-date and scientifically supported treatments.

Several factors can contribute to TMJ pain, including temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), bruxism (teeth grinding/clenching), arthritis, stress and anxiety, and poor posture. TMD typically arises from muscle imbalances, jaw joint misalignments, or damaged cartilage resulting from trauma or degenerative changes. Bruxism, often occurring during sleep, can lead to excessive wear on the teeth and TMJ, causing pain and joint inflammation. Arthritis can cause inflammation and degeneration of the TMJ, resulting in chronic pain and impaired jaw function. Stress and anxiety can increase muscle tension and involuntary jaw clenching, exacerbating TMJ pain. Additionally, poor posture, especially for extended periods, can strain the neck and jaw muscles, contributing to TMJ discomfort.

These conditions can significantly impact your daily life, work performance, and social interactions. Fortunately, our evidence-based chiropractic care at Midwest Chiropractic Center can help you overcome these challenges. Our skilled chiropractor will alleviate your TMJ pain and restore optimal jaw function, enabling you to regain control and improve your overall well-being.

Experience Long-Term Relief with Evidence-Based Chiropractic Care for TMJ

At Midwest Chiropractic Center, we begin by conducting a comprehensive evaluation to gain a thorough understanding of your unique experience with TMJ dysfunction. This evaluation includes a detailed assessment of your medical history, enabling us to identify potential contributing factors and previous treatments. Through a hands-on assessment of the TMJ, muscles, and surrounding structures, we can identify signs of dysfunction.

We also perform a range of motion and strength testing to evaluate your current jaw function and pinpoint areas for improvement. By utilizing specialized testing for TMJ function, we ensure an accurate diagnosis and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

Our chiropractor relies on evidence-based practices to create customized treatment plans that address the root causes of your TMJ pain. Treatment options may include targeted chiropractic adjustments to realign the jaw joint, soft tissue therapy to reduce muscle tension and inflammation, exercises to strengthen the jaw muscles and improve mobility, ergonomic and postural advice to prevent strain on the TMJ, and stress management techniques to reduce clenching and improve overall relaxation.

As you progress through your personalized treatment plan, our chiropractors will regularly assess your progress and make any necessary adjustments to ensure optimal results. Our goal is to provide you with long-term relief and empower you to take control of your TMJ health.
