Facial Pain Omaha

Do you suffer from unexplainable face pain? Many people do, going to their doctor to complain of headaches and radiating face pain that creeps into the neck and ear and shoulders. The pain often starts in the joint of the jaw, and hurts worse when opening and closing the mouth, yawning, or chewing. Sometimes it’s even accompanied by swelling on the side of the face and mouth. Muscles ache from all the tension. It’s as if the nerves in the face are sending urgent messages, but no one can read the language.

This face pain is often due to Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMJ/TMD). In most cases, TMJ Disorder occurs naturally based on the shape or location of your jaw and skull, although it can be the result of sudden trauma, injury, or stress. This pain can be alleviated through neuromuscular dentistry. Neuromuscular dentistry seeks to realign your jaw into its optimal position.
