Other patients have been told that there is nothing that can be done about their jaw pain because the doctor told them they have degeneration or osteoarthritis in the jaw and that this can’t be fixed. However, retraining the correct muscles can help to take the pressure off the joint and therefore relieve the pain and symptoms.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can TMJ and jaw pain go away on its own?
In a lot of cases, yes, you can take measures to ensure TMJ goes away on its own - such as minimising stress to reduce clenching your jaw. However, if you experience persistent pain we recommend seeing a physio.
What happens if TMJ or jaw pain goes untreated?
If TMJ is left untreated, symptoms such as lockjaw can get worse, and in some cases, your lower jaw can get pushed back. In extreme cases, this can impact your breathing, which can lead to chronic headaches and neck pain.
