"Dr. Adelstein, what TMJ disorder treatments are available?"
Proper diagnosis is critical to make sure you
receive treatment for your particular condition. At West Morris Dental Associates we will only
recommend treatment after conducting a thorough health history, clinical
exam, taking appropriate X-rays, and perhaps confirming the condition
through other diagnostic tests.At West Morris Dental Associates we may prescribe a multiple-phase treatment plan. Only minor corrective treatment may be needed. Treatment may be simple or require more steps for alleviating the condition, depending on the degree of severity. Some of these treatments include:
 |
Taking a non-aspirin pain reliever or prescription medications such as muscle relaxants, analgesics, or anti-inflammatory drugs |
|
|
Eating soft foods |
|
|
Avoiding chewing gum |
|
|
Applying moist heat or ice |
|
|
Physical therapy |
|
|
Teaching relaxation techniques to control muscle tension |
|
|
Stress management training techniques |
|
|
Posture training |
|
|
Wearing an orthotic to eliminate the harmful effects of clenching or grinding the teeth, and a better positioning of the jaws |
|
