Laser Therapy for TMJ & Jaw Pain in Greenville, NC
Relief for jaw pain, clicking, and headaches, without mouth guards, injections, or surgery.
What Is TMJ Dysfunction?
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects your jaw to your skull. When it or the jaw muscles become inflamed from clenching, grinding, stress, arthritis, or injury, it causes pain every time you chew, talk, or yawn.
Night guards and muscle relaxers manage symptoms. Laser therapy treats the inflammation and muscle tension behind them.
