Your Dream TMJ Treatment Specialist Appointment Awaits You
Exploring Treatment Options
There are various treatment avenues for TMJ disorders, each with unique benefits and considerations. Non-invasive treatments often include:
- Physical Therapy: Exercises aimed at strengthening jaw muscles and improving flexibility.
- Medications: Pain relievers, anti-inflammatories, or muscle relaxants to alleviate symptoms.
- Occlusal Appliances: Custom-fitted mouthguards that reduce teeth grinding and jaw stress.
For more severe cases, surgical options such as arthrocentesis or open-joint surgery might be considered3. It's essential to discuss these options with a specialist to determine the best course of action for your condition.
