Nerve pain in the face can be difficult to diagnose and incredibly complex to treat.

Neuropathic orofacial pain is a chronic condition cause by damaged or dysfunctional nerves that carry pain signals. Unlike typical pain caused by injury or inflammation, neuropathic pain can continue long after the original issue has healed.

In some cases, pain stems from direct nerve damage. At other times, it’s related to changes in how the brain processes pain signals, meaning the nervous system itself is misfiring.

Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may include medication, nerve blocks, or newer regenerative therapies. The key is in identifying what’s driving your pain; then identifying what treatment will be most effective.

If you think you are experiencing nerve pain, schedule an appointment today to move toward lasting relief.

Call us at (608) 285-2853 to schedule.

Your body is composed of interconnected parts and is influenced by your history, current circumstances, brain chemistry, and mental health. Why does this matter?

Because at Midwest Jaw Relief, we view you as a whole person, deserving of comprehensive care.

That's why your appointment will always include a time for us to learn about:
• The history of your pain and other medical conditions
• Any life stressors (past and present)
• Your current pain
• Your current life circumstances

Gathering this information helps us provide a comprehensive assessment and diagnosis. It gives us a fuller picture of your experiences, pain, and the contributing factors. All of these things help inform your treatment. You're more than a talking head and deserve care that takes everything into account.

If you're ready to receive whole-body care, schedule an appointment today: https://midwestjawrelief.com/request-an-appointment/

Did you know that research shows that several chronic pain conditions, including temporomandibular disorders, may be more prevalent in women than in men?

Estrogen is a natural anti-inflammatory chemical, and many researchers believe that monthly dips in estrogen levels are associated with varying levels of inflammation in a woman's joints and muscles. Other studies show that female jaw muscles are more prone to injury due to less blood flow and oxygen reaching these areas.

If you're a woman struggling with chronic face pain, our office is here to support you. Contact us to take the first step towards relief.

When this patient first came to our office, they were living with persistent and unexplained jaw pain that had taken over their daily life. Simple things like eating, sleeping, and spending time with friends had become difficult. After ongoing discomfort, they had started to wonder if relief was possible.

At that first visit, we took the time to look at the whole picture. We reviewed their full history, discussed their symptoms in detail, and started down the path towards a personalized treatment plan.

At the first follow-up appointment, this patient was excited to let Dr. Guthrie know that the plan was working! For the first time in a long time, this patient can feel hopeful because a life without chronic pain is within reach.

You deserve a story like this, too. Schedule an appointment today.

There is something so refreshing about this time of year. Spring invites us to hit “reset", to let go of what’s been weighing us down and step into a new season with intention.

But while spring brings sunshine, fresh air, and renewal… it can also bring busier schedules and added stress, especially if you’re juggling chronic pain.

As we move into this new season, here are three gentle reminders:

🌿 Listen to your body. If pain is flaring, rest isn’t weakness; it’s wisdom. Prioritize the strategies that truly support your relief.

🌿 You know your body best. If you’ve seen multiple providers and still don’t have answers, don’t lose hope. Sometimes a fresh perspective, like consulting an orofacial pain specialist, can make all the difference.

🌿 You deserve to feel well. You deserve to enjoy everything spring has to offer without pushing through constant discomfort.

Renewal isn’t just about cleaning out closets; it can be about renewing your health and finally addressing the root of your pain.

If you’re ready for a fresh start this season, let’s talk. Schedule an appointment and take the first step toward clarity and relief.

If you suffer from chronic face pain, there is a good chance you have walked through at least one misdiagnosis and pursued treatments that have left you frustrated without resolving your symptoms.

The correct diagnosis informs the correct treatment, and you deserve both.

That's why we begin our appointments by gathering a full history of your symptoms, along with a comprehensive physical exam. We want the full picture to help us discover the root cause of your pain and provide you with a proper diagnosis.

Healing starts with being seen, heard, and properly diagnosed, so you can experience life without chronic pain.

Oral Sleep Appliance vs CPAP Machine

What's the difference? Which one might be right for you? Let's break it down below.

Oral Sleep Appliance
• A custom, mouthguard-like device
• Gently positions the jaw forward to keep the airway open
• Compact and travel-friendly
• No cords, masks, or machinery

CPAP Machine
• Uses continuous air pressure to keep your airway open while you sleep
• Requires an electrical outlet
• Can be noisy and may feel uncomfortable for some users

Choosing between these two options depends on many factors, but most importantly, your individual needs. At your appointment, we can help you make an informed decision. Schedule today!
