TMJ Massage

In this video, I'll show you how to get the energy moving in your jaw joints. You can use something like Arnica, Traumeel, or Rosemary Oil to give this exercise an little extra kick!

Thanks Doc! I’ve been having issues for a year now and this is the first time I’ve been able to open my mouth fully open. Will be doing this every day.

[@sandraham3207]

Instantly relaxed my jaw. THANK YOU!

[@izzybyers6783]

Thank you so much! I'm a vocalist and could not open my mouth very much this morning. Already feeling much better. 🎉

I’m often a soprano but I have a bad TMD and one of the “don’t”s on the list my doctor gave me is high singing 😭 I’ll have to be an alto until the appliance I’m getting starts working

[@ashleywiegand3055]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge, this is a daily struggle for me for at least 15 years, I will try this type of massage, it already seems better than the way I've been doing it. My jaw already has some relief after trying it along with this video! 🎉

[@weremeber2001]

I just opened my mouth fully for the first time in probably a month. Thank you!!!

[@hannahescobedo476]

I injured my jaw holding it open while numb at the dentist and it has been over two weeks. It was slowly getting harder to open and more painful. I tried this exercise with a peppermint balm and INSTANTLY felt relief and can now open my jaw again. Thank you so much!

[@nickcarneyphotography]

This made my jaw feel better already. Thanks. Will see how it goes in a week or so.

When I was young and dentists routinely used amalgam fillings they didn't create a good bite with the apposing tooth so the bite was altered in a bad way. Once I said the filling was too high and he said you will wear it down. But my jaw started clicking when I ate and eventually my jaw stopped opening my mouth. When the fillings were corrected it was okay. Someone said be careful you could get arthritis in that jaw. And now thanks to you Im sure this is whatI have got. It leads into headaches on that side. So Im excited to use this technique. Thank you.

[@RimZimBrishti]

Excellent explanation! Thanks very much!

[@BigMac8000]

This helped a lot, thank you for the well-delivered tutorial.

[@Immortal4everable]

Woke up with a splitting headache on one temple around my eyebrow. Figured it was a sinus infection beginning, then it turned into tooth/jaw pain and I thought that my impacted wisdom teeth were finally coming back to bite me. Saw this video and tried the massage and OUCH. I think this may be my problem. Never had TMJ before, but I have noticed a whole lot of jaw clenching stress lately.

[@Prama.23]

it's happening to me right now at this very moment , it's been like this for an hour ... what should i do?

[@JJZB9]

woah, quite a bit of pain doing that! might need to go see someone about it

[@teremorales3756]

[@akashchowdhury1786]

Very nice info doctor..Thankyou very much🙏

[@eddie195777]

Should one apply heat or cold packs to the area when dealing with TMJ? Thank you for sharing this video.

[@jlardiz]

Great video! Do you have something for when your jaw just feels heavy at it’s resting state?

[@Melanie-le6mw]

Thanks for the upload ! This helps! ❤

[@jenniferrikert9236]

great video! I noticed my jaw unlocks when i massage almost every time! I use either arnica or copaiba essential oil. Do you have any other essential oil suggestions that might be good for joints? And is the purpose to reduce inflammation o in the joint or to relax the surrounding muscle?

[@ashleyhaggart8690]

I use Copaiba oil too, and magnesium butter. It really helps!

[@Dr.ARMAND]

Is this safe if I'm already going through treatment? They say my discs are out of place. I'm am wearing splints at night and the lower half during the day.

[@erinm3567]

You remind me a little of Kirk Cameron. Thanks for this information.

[@sharathkumar6463]

Thanks dr

[@cemcito]

Hello, when I massage it it hurts a bit. Can this be the reason for my tinnitus?

[@vintagehairfan]

I grind my teeth when I sleep so hard I wake myself. So thank you for sharing this and yes 😂 there’s pain when I do this and yes I have a mouth guard on the way.

[@eldinalankwarden9225]

Thanks 🙏💃

[@BishBosh24]

Hi , Can TMJ cause ETD?

[@ninodifra3398]

Can I repeat it more than 4-5 times in a row???

[@akashchowdhury1786]

Do as long as u are comfortable as said by the doctor

[@hukmanshaves6939]

ok so i have what may be a lump or knot just below and infront of the bottom of the earlode. and ive had some dentalopain that basicaly moves back and forth from the back of my jaw all the way to the front of my lower jaw.. there are some issues with the teeth that could be causing and infected tooth. but when i massaged that area earlier it caused pain in the surrounding muscles inmy cheek and upper jaw as well as lower jaw it kind of felt like it may have been spasming. ive had tooth infections before and every time ive had one a single 800mg ibuprofen will knock out the pain for most of the day well this has been coming and going for a few weeks now. but at my last dentist appointment i pointed out to my dentist that my right jaw stays more tense than the left side and some times aches. occasionally when im eating ill get a loud pop on theat side that causes my ear to ring. it doesnt happen often but does happen occasionally. the800 mg ibuprofen only brought it down to bearable levels but i noticed when i touched and massage that area it caused my tooth pain to go away but did cause pain in the areas and muscles around it. felt like it may have cause them to tighten up. does this kind of thing happen with tmj? i took amoxicilin just in case its an infection but my pain has never been this far ranging, usually when i have an infected tooth the pain usually just feels like its around the tooth like the tooth on each side of it but this pain feels like its moving up and down my bottom jaw on the back and while i can open and close my mouth the muscles feel extremely tight, maybe they are cramping idk. i just want your opinion on this before i look for a specialist in my area

[@BuffaloTMJ]

That sounds like it could be multiple problems. Best to seek a professional opinion. I'd start with a physician.

[@aidanbrooks6626]

Mate, can tmj cause swaying/dizziness? Been dizzy for 10 months and every test - brain mri, bloods, heart, abdomen scans all clear

[@Maratha2992]

Yes it's common

[@BuffaloTMJ]

A CBCT can show if there are structures out of balance. Sometimes, when one side of the jaw is longer than the other, it can lead to a head tilt, and I think this can lead to balance issues. Check the structures for asymmetries, then consult with a PT or maybe even Pilates instructor for exercises to promote good overall balance and stability. And download my app! 🙂
