Jaw Ache
Jaw Ache in London
People suffer from jaw ache for a variety of reasons: joint stress, teeth (occlusal) imbalance and muscle tightness. The overall term for this pain is called tempero-mandibular pain dysfunction syndrome (TMJPDS).
The jaw muscles are the main muscles involved in eating and speaking, and problems around the jaw can lead to several problems in the mouth. The jaw is often overlooked when looking at problems in the teeth. Early diagnosis is important in preventing problems. From urgent problems, the use of a laser can warm the superficial and deep aspects of the jaw ligaments relieving pain. Advanced laser therapy is a relatively new treatment method for helping jaw ache and can be very effective when used in combination with other treatments. If you feel you can benefit from TMJ therapy, please contact one of our team.
