Jaw Pain and TMJ

Jaw Pain and TMJ

Jaw pain, clicking, or difficulty opening your mouth fully are common signs of TMJ dysfunction, and they're often tied to more than just the jaw joint itself. Neck posture, muscle tension, and bite alignment can all play a role, which is why I work directly with dental providers in Fort Collins to treat the full picture.

Treatment focuses on restoring normal jaw movement, reducing muscle tension, and addressing the postural or neck-related factors that are often feeding the problem. See the Dental Integration page for more on how this coordinated approach works.

Common Causes I Treat

TMJ dysfunction, jaw clicking or locking, bite-related muscle tension, and jaw pain following dental work.
