Comprehensive TMJ Therapy: A Guide to Long-Term Relief

 

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain is a common condition that affects the jaw joint, leading to discomfort and limited movement. If you're seeking effective and sustainable relief from TMJ pain, Allimeden offers a comprehensive TMJ therapy approach that goes beyond traditional methods. This guide aims to provide a detailed overview of the possible causes of TMJ pain, along with how Allimeden's comprehensive solution addresses these issues, specifically focusing on the muscles of the tongue in addition to the chewing muscles.

 

TMJ pain can arise due to various factors, including:

 

1. Misalignment of the Jaw: When the jaw joint is not properly aligned, it can cause strain on the surrounding muscles and tissues, leading to pain.

2. Bruxism (Teeth Grinding): Excessive teeth grinding or clenching puts undue pressure on the jaw joint, resulting in TMJ pain.

3. Stress and Anxiety: Emotional stress and anxiety can contribute to muscle tension in the jaw, exacerbating TMJ symptoms.

4. Arthritis: In some cases, TMJ pain may be caused by arthritis, an inflammation of the joints\\

5. Tongue Dysfunction: The job of the tongue is to help us swallow, clean our teeth, move our food, and speak. The job IS NOT to chew. If the tongue is dysfunctional it can overwork the muscles of the Jaw causing pain, Bruxism, Misalignment of the Jaw and Anxiety.
