Expert TMJ physiotherapy treatment in Brampton
Do you experience jaw pain, a persistent clicking sound, or a headache while eating or speaking? Temporomandibular Joint or TMJ Disorder might be the reason behind it. At Physiotherapy First, we provide a specialized, non-invasive approach to treating temporomandibular disorder (TMJ) with physiotherapy in Brampton. Our registered physiotherapists address the root cause of your discomfort and help restore your natural jaw function.
What is the TMJ Syndrome/Disorder?
It’s easier to understand TMJ disorder if you know what TMJ is and its role.
TMJ is the Temporomandibular Joint. It is a hinge joint connecting your lower jaw (Mandible) to the temporal bone of your skull. This joint allows you to talk, chew and yawn. There are two temporomandibular joints on each side of your face, just below your ears. They both attach to your lower jaw and must work in perfect symmetry.
TMJ Dysfunction is the injury of your temporomandibular joint, along with the muscles that move it. It usually happens due to a combination of factors like physical strain, wear and tear and muscular tension.
What causes TMJ disorders?
- Uneven teeth or jaws due to misalignment or damage
- Grinding the teeth (Bruxism)
- Musculoskeletal problems, such as arthritis
- Improper Posture ( slouched shoulders)
- Anxiety
- Clinching of teeth
- A direct blow to the job fees or even the head
- Whiplash
- Articular Disk Displacement
- Too much gum chewing
