TMJ Trigger Point Injections NJ
At Bloom Holistic Dental, we offer trigger point injections to help relive pain associated with TMJ Disorders (TMD). We believe in natural, alternative solutions instead of Botox to help treat TMD. We also look to the root cause of why a patient may be experiencing TMJ Pain.
What is TMD
(Temporomandibular Disorder)?
TMJ dysfunction (TMD) causes pain and tenderness in your jaw joints and surrounding muscles and ligaments. Some causes of this include teeth grinding and clenching, jaw injuries, malocclusion, arthritis and everyday wear and tear.
What are Trigger Point Injections?
Trigger point injections are treatments used to relieve pain caused by trigger points, which are painful knots in muscles. The injection typically contains a local anesthetic.
How We Do
Trigger Point Injections Differently
We not only use local anesthetics, but we combine them with homeopathic remedies that help relieve inflammation, pain, and muscle tenderness.
We use a combination of procaine and homeopathic remedies to help relieve TMJ pain.
The homeopathic remedies lead to an increased reduction in symptoms and have longer lasting effects.
