Exploring TMJ Symptoms and Treatments

About Me

Welcome, it's Dahlia Jaleni here to help you learn more about TMJ treatments. I was first struck with pain from a serious TMJ disorder during a particularly difficult round of college finals. I was stressed out and unable to sleep when the pain hit. I couldn't eat or chew correctly for a week while waiting for the swelling in my jaw joint to go down. The raw soreness lasted for several weeks after that until I sought help from my dentist. Hot compresses and manual therapy helped my jaw heal. I was fitted with a night guard to prevent that situation from happening again. Sadly, my TMJ story is typical, so I decided to share tips and tricks for controlling pain caused by this debilitating condition. I will also update this site with dental treatment advancements as they arise. Thanks for coming by!
