When your jaw is in pain, aching or experiencing any other type of discomfort, TMJ therapy may be needed. The jaw is one of the most important parts of your oral health. Without your jaw, you wouldn’t be able to move your mouth around or perform other movements that require the use of your jaw. Plus, any type of pain that’s associated with your jaw can be excruciating to deal with. There must be a very delicate balance in order for the temporomandibular joints to function as they should. When there are no issues, everything runs smoothly with unobstructed jaw movement.

Pain is the body’s way of telling you something is wrong. If you are experiencing pain in your jaw, this may be a sign of TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorder. TMJ,or TMD, can affect the temporomandibular joint, the jaw muscles and nerves on either side of the face.
