Many people think night guards and TMJ orthotics are the same — but they’re not 👇

🦷 Night guards protect your teeth from grinding
🦷 TMJ orthotics help guide your jaw into a healthier position

If you’re dealing with jaw pain, headaches, or clicking, the right appliance matters.
✨ TMJ treatment is not one-size-fits-all.

🌙 Night TMJ Pain

Do you wake up with jaw pain or tightness in the morning?

Nighttime TMJ pain is often caused by clenching or grinding while you sleep, not a damaged joint. These habits tighten the jaw muscles and place extra pressure on the TMJ.

Sleeping on your stomach or with your hand under your jaw can make symptoms worse and lead to morning jaw pain, headaches, or facial tension.

The good news?
TMJ pain caused by nighttime habits is treatable.

🌿 1. Hydrate Early
A full glass of water helps relax muscles and reduce morning stiffness.

🥣 2. Choose a Soft Breakfast
Avoid heavy chewing first thing in the morning — give your jaw time to warm up.

🤸‍♀️ 3. Light Jaw + Neck Stretches
Gentle movements can improve circulation and ease overnight tension.

✨ Small habits = Big relief!
Your mornings don’t have to start with discomfort.

✨Why Does TMJ Ear Pain Happen?✨

Ear pain… but your doctor says your ears look perfectly fine? 👂🤔
It might actually be coming from your jaw.

Your TMJ sits right next to your ear, so when the joint becomes tight, inflamed, or out of alignment, the nerves can send pain into the ear.
That’s why TMJ ear pain can feel like:
🔸 Pressure
🔸 Fullness
🔸 Ringing
🔸 Ear infection symptoms — even when nothing is wrong with the ear itself.

Common triggers:
✨ Clenching or grinding
✨ Stress
✨ Chewing on one side
✨ Jaw tension

If your ears hurt but everything “looks normal,” your jaw may be the real problem — and we can help. 💆‍♀️💛

MYTH vs. FACT: TMJ Therapy Edition

🧪 MYTH:
“TMJ pain is normal and will just go away on its own.”

✔️ FACT:
TMJ symptoms are a sign that something in your jaw, muscles, or bite is out of balance—
and ignoring it can make things worse.
With proper evaluation and personalized TMJ therapy, most patients experience major relief and improved jaw function.

✨ Don’t live with constant pain, clicking, headaches, or ear symptoms.
Let us help you find the real cause of your symptoms.

✨ Things That Make Your TMJ Worse (Without You Realizing!) ✨

🤐 Teeth Clenching & Grinding
Stress makes your jaw muscles work overtime—even in your sleep.

📱 Looking Down at Your Phone
“Text neck” tightens the neck and jaw muscles, increasing pain.

😬 Chewing Gum or Hard Foods
Constant chewing overworks your jaw joints.

💭 Poor Posture
Slouching pulls your head forward and puts pressure on the jaw.

😧 Sleeping on Your Stomach
Twists the neck → misaligns the jaw.

🍬 Biting Nails, Pens, or Ice
These habits strain the jaw and can worsen inflammation.

💢 Ignoring Jaw Clicking or Pain
Early symptoms often get worse without treatment.
