TMJ Rehabilitation for Jaw Pain in Bangalore
TMJ Rehabilitation for Jaw Pain in Bangalore
In Advanced Physiotherapy Clinic offers progressive physiotherapy and rehabilitation for TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) disorders, which are one of the most prevalent symptoms of jaw stiffness, pain, and discomfort in the face. Our TMJ rehabilitation programs are easy-going, evidence-based, and focus on alleviating tension in the jaw, enhancing joint mobility, and restoring normal mouth function.
What is TMJ Pain or Disorder?
Your TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) connects your jawbone to your skull. This allows you to open and close your mouth for basic daily functions: speaking, eating, and yawning. When TMJ disorders develop, the joint or the muscles that surround it become tight, inflamed, or misaligned. This can trigger pain or symptoms such as jaw clicking or locking, or difficulty moving.
- Muscle overuse or tension
- Jaw injuries or trauma
- Poor posture (head, neck support)
- Dental procedures or uneven bite
Conditions Treated with TMJ Rehabilitation
Jaw discomfort and tension
Utilizing physiotherapy interventions to release muscle tension in your jaw and allow for a smooth movement of your jaw.
Clicking or painful jaw
Targeted exercise and mobilization to address the alignment of the joint to prevent locking or popping.
Limited opening of the mouth
Gentle stretching and mobilization designed to safely increase your mouth-open range.
Head and facial pain
Relief of irritative tension and muscle irritative tensions associated with the dysfunction of the jaw.
Post-trauma or post-dental pain
Soft tissue manipulation and muscle relaxation exercises as a means to reduce pain and swelling after an injury or dental procedure.
Bruxism & clenching
Training to help muscles relax, offload the jaw, and re-assess posture in order to reduce pain associated with grinding of the teeth.
How Does TMJ Rehabilitation Work?
During your appointment, our physiotherapist will observe your jaw movement, muscle tightness, posture, and your bite pattern. Based on this assessment, a treatment plan will be devised that may include:
- Manual and joint mobilization
- Myofascial release to the neck and facial muscles
- Relaxation and jaw control exercises
- Posture correcting techniques
All of these interventions are designed to reduce pain, recreate proper joint alignment, and prevent the return of the original pain pattern by re-establishing balance between the neck and jaw muscles.
