Temporomandibular Dysfunction, or TMD, is a term that encompasses a range of problems affecting the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), responsible for jaw movements.
This condition can result from various factors, from muscle tension to structural issues in the joint, significantly impacting oral and overall well-being.
The symptoms of TMD can vary, but often include:
- Jaw pain or discomfort;
- Clicking when opening or closing the mouth;
- Difficulty chewing or speaking;
- Headaches and earaches;
- A tight feeling in the jaw;
- In severe cases, avoiding fully opening the mouth.
By using manual techniques on the face and specific exercises, we aim to alleviate pain, restore jaw mobility, and prevent invasive approaches. Prevention is essential.
