Jaw pain often accompanies headaches, and some people find that they can’t open their mouths wide enough, or the jaw shifts to one side when opening the mouth.
The Tempero-mandibular joints (jaw hinge joint) can become stiff or inflamed, causing pain, clicking, locking, or being unable to open your jaw properly for eating. Some patients battle once they have had prolongued dentistry treatment. We treat the joints and associated muscles in the head, face and neck and correct posture. Dry needling is also very successful in the treatment of these conditions.
