Jaw pain is a common condition we treat at Hornsby Chiropractic Centre, and it can arise for a variety of reasons. Whether it’s from a misalignment, muscle tension, or temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, jaw pain can affect people of all ages. Left untreated, it can worsen and begin to interfere with your day-to-day life.
Common Causes of Jaw Pain
Jaw pain can stem from a range of factors, including:
TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) disorders
Teeth grinding or jaw clenching (often due to stress)
Poor posture, particularly neck and head positioning
Injury or trauma to the jaw
Muscle tension or imbalance in the jaw and surrounding muscles
Arthritis or inflammation affecting the jaw joint
Treating Jaw Pain and Dysfunction at Hornsby Chiropractic Centre
At Hornsby Chiropractic Centre, we take a holistic approach to treating jaw pain. Our chiropractors begin with a thorough consultation to discuss your symptoms and medical history. This helps us understand your specific situation, including possible contributing factors like posture or stress. Following this, we conduct a detailed physical examination, which may include musculoskeletal and neurological assessments to identify the root cause of your discomfort. We may also suggest imaging, such as X-rays, if necessary.
Once we understand the underlying cause of your jaw pain, we create a customised treatment plan to address your unique needs. This may include gentle chiropractic adjustments to improve alignment, soft tissue therapy to reduce muscle tension, and targeted exercises to strengthen the jaw and neck muscles. We also provide lifestyle and ergonomic advice to reduce the impact of jaw pain on your everyday activities.
Our goal is to alleviate your jaw pain, restore proper function, and enable you to enjoy life without discomfort. If additional care is required, we will work with other healthcare professionals, such as dentists or physiotherapists, to ensure you receive the best possible care.
