TMD treatment may include a combination of self-care measures, such as applying heat or ice to the affected area, practicing relaxation techniques, and avoiding hard or chewy foods. Your dental professional may also recommend medications, such as pain relievers or muscle relaxants, to manage your symptoms.
In some cases, dental treatments such as bite adjustments or orthodontics may be recommended to correct any underlying issues that may be contributing to your TMD. In more severe cases, surgery may be necessary.
