Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Treatment in Peachtree City


Understanding TMJ: More Than Just Jaw Pain

Are you experiencing jaw pain, clicking sounds when you open your mouth, or difficulty chewing? You might be dealing with Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) disorder, a condition that affects millions of Americans but often goes undiagnosed or improperly treated.

The temporomandibular joint connects your jawbone to your skull, acting like a sliding hinge that allows you to talk, eat, and yawn comfortably. When this complex system of muscles, ligaments, discs, and bones doesn't work properly, the resulting pain and discomfort can significantly impact your quality of life.


Common Symptoms of TMJ

TMJ can manifest in various ways, including:

  • Pain or tenderness in your jaw, face, neck, or shoulders

  • Clicking, popping, or grating sounds when opening your mouth

  • Jaws that get "stuck" or "lock" in the open or closed position

  • Difficulty or discomfort when chewing

  • Facial swelling

  • Headaches or earaches

  • Dizziness

  • Ringing in the ears (tinnitus)

Many people don't realize these symptoms are connected to their jaw function, leading to years of unnecessary discomfort and unsuccessful treatments.


How Chiropractic Care Addresses TMJ

At Movement Chiropractic in Peachtree City, we take a different approach to TMJ care. Rather than simply treating the symptoms, we focus on identifying and correcting the underlying causes of your TMJ disorder.

Many cases of TMJ stem from misalignments in the jaw, neck, and spine. These misalignments can disrupt the entire musculoskeletal system, creating tension patterns that affect TMJ function.

Our neurologically-based, corrective chiropractic approach addresses these root issues by:

  1. Comprehensive Assessment: Evaluating your entire spinal structure, not just your jaw, to identify contributing factors to your TMJ.

  2. Precise Adjustments: Using specific chiropractic techniques to restore proper alignment and function to your spine, neck, and jaw.

  3. Soft Tissue Therapy: Addressing muscle tension and trigger points that may be contributing to your jaw pain.

  4. Customized Treatment Plans: Developing personalized care strategies based on your unique needs and condition severity.


The Movement Chiropractic Difference

At Movement Chiropractic, our approach to TMJ is grounded in the science of Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP) – the most researched technique in the chiropractic profession with over 150 peer-reviewed studies supporting its effectiveness.

Dr. Bryan Hammer and Dr. Andrew Muldermans specialize in using Mirror Image® adjustments and other advanced techniques that specifically target postural abnormalities contributing to your TMJ.

Unlike treatments that only provide temporary relief, our corrective approach aims to create lasting changes in your body's structure and function. We don't just want you to feel better temporarily – we want to help resolve the underlying issues causing your TMJ.


Beyond Pain Relief: Comprehensive Care for TMJ

Our TMJ treatment program includes:

  • Specialized Adjustments: Gentle, precise techniques targeted specifically for TMJ issues

  • Spinal Rehabilitation: Using Denneroll Traction Orthotics to restore proper cervical curve

  • SoftWave Therapy: Advanced technology that promotes natural healing

  • Lifestyle Recommendations: Practical advice on habits, ergonomics, and exercises to support your recovery


Is Chiropractic Care Right for Your TMJ?

If you've tried medications, night guards, or other treatments without lasting success, chiropractic care may provide the solution you've been seeking. Our approach is particularly effective for TMJ sufferers who:

  • Have chronic or recurring jaw pain

  • Experience TMJ symptoms along with neck pain or headaches

  • Haven't found relief through conventional treatments

  • Want to address the root cause rather than mask symptoms
