TMJ WIESBADEN
Pain in the chewing muscles, migraines, tension, or tinnitus – these can all be possible signs of craniomandibular dysfunction (CMD). Many people suffer for years from pain in the head, neck, and back area without knowing the actual cause, and literally grit their teeth. An incorrect bite between the upper and lower jaw can play a central role. We will clarify together in a detailed diagnosis and temporomandibular joint treatment which treatment options are suitable for you as part of TMJ therapy in Wiesbaden.
TMJ
TEMPOROMANDIBULAR
DISORDER
CMD describes structural, functional, and psychological misregulation of the temporomandibular joints, which affect muscle and joint function. Even the smallest misalignments of the jaws or unevenness of the teeth can be the cause of CMD. An individually adapted CMD treatment in Wiesbaden can help to alleviate these complaints and restore the function of the temporomandibular joint.
CAUSES
The symptoms often arise from an incorrect bite between the upper and lower jaw or from malfunctions of the temporomandibular joint. This causes the surrounding muscles to be over or incorrectly stressed, which can lead to pain, tension, or other CMD symptoms. In our dental practice in Wiesbaden, we analyze the causes as part of a targeted temporomandibular joint treatment and develop a suitable therapy concept.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is TMJ?
CMD stands for craniomandibular dysfunction and describes misregulation in the interaction of the temporomandibular joint, chewing muscles, and teeth. These can lead to pain and tension in the head, neck, or back area.
How is TMJ treated?
The treatment of CMD in Wiesbaden depends on the individual cause. Bite splints or special splint therapies are often used to relieve the temporomandibular joints and relax the muscles.
What are typical TMJ symptoms?
Typical symptoms of CMD are temporomandibular joint pain, headaches, tension, ringing in the ears such as tinnitus, or restricted jaw movements. Teeth grinding can also be an indication of CMD.
What is a bite splint or TMJ splint?
A bite splint – also called a TMJ splint – is individually adapted and helps to compensate for incorrect contacts between the upper and lower jaw. It stabilizes the temporomandibular joint, protects the teeth, and can alleviate complaints such as grinding or tension.
