How we can help?
First-Line Conservative TMJ Therapy
We offer non-invasive treatments to relieve TMJ pain and improve jaw function, including:

- Medications – Targeted pharmacological therapy to manage pain and inflammation.
- Ultrasound Therapy – Helps reduce muscle tension and improve circulation.
- Trigger Point Therapy – Focused treatment to relieve tight jaw muscles and discomfort.
- Botox Injections – Used for severe bruxism (teeth grinding) to relax overactive jaw muscles.
- Physiotherapy Techniques:
- Heat & Cold Therapy – Reduces pain and inflammation.
- Jaw Exercises – Strengthens and improves mobility in the jaw joint.
Airway Orthodontics
- Expanding the Airway: Orthodontic treatments, such as maxillary expansion, help widen the upper jaw, which in turn opens the nasal cavity and improves airflow.
- Improving Tongue Posture: Proper jaw alignment creates enough space for the tongue to rest naturally, reducing airway obstruction.
- Correcting Jaw Position: Orthodontic treatments can help move the lower jaw (mandible) forward, creating more room in the airway and improving breathing.
Integrative Orthodontics
- We take into account the interconnectedness of the teeth, jaws,
airway and overall body function to create a more balanced, long-term
health outcomes. - A whole-body approach in orthodontics considers how the alignment
of the teeth and jaws affects overall health, including breathing,
posture, and joint function. - By looking beyond just the smile, this method aims to create long-term
wellness through personalized, integrative care that supports the
entire body
Collaborative Care
As part of our multidisciplinary approach, we work closely with dental, medical and other healthcare professionals to provide integrated, whole-body solutions for sleep apnea, TMJ disorders, and airway-related concerns. This team-based model ensures each patient receives comprehensive, personalized care tailored to their unique needs. By combining traditional orthodontic techniques with insights from other medical disciplines, this approach supports optimal function, posture, and wellness—not just straighter teeth.
