TMJ Dysfunction Therapy

Relieve Jaw Pain and Improve Your Quality of Life with TMJ Dysfunction Therapy

The team at Ace Physique understands how frustrating and painful temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction can be. Jaw pain, difficulty chewing, headaches, ear discomfort, and more–are all signs of TMJ dysfunction. Fortunately, TMJ dysfunction therapy can help address the root causes of your symptoms and provide long-lasting relief.

What Is TMJ Dysfunction?

TMJ dysfunction occurs when the temporomandibular joint, which connects the jawbone to the skull, isn’t functioning properly. This can lead to pain, stiffness, and difficulty moving the jaw. 

It can develop due to several factors, and addressing those factors is the key to finding lasting relief. Here are a few of the reasons why someone might develop TMJ dysfunction:

  • Teeth grinding (bruxism)
  • Jaw injury
  • Arthritis of the jaw joint
  • Misalignment in the jaw
  • Repetitive movements

Real Stories. Real Results.
