Holistic Support for Jaw Pain, Tension, and Bite Imbalance

If you’re dealing with chronic jaw pain, clenching, headaches, or facial tension, you may be experiencing TMJ dysfunction—an issue that can quietly affect everything from how you chew to how you sleep. At BioDental Healing, we take a whole-person approach to TMJ care, using safe, non-toxic methods to ease discomfort and restore balance.

We offer BPA-free night guards and biologically aligned therapies, and when more complex treatment is needed, we collaborate with trusted TMJ specialists to ensure your care remains integrated, supportive, and customized.

What Is TMJ Dysfunction?

TMJ stands for temporomandibular joint—the hinge that connects your jawbone to your skull. Dysfunction can arise from:

  • Clenching or grinding (bruxism)

  • Dental misalignment or bite imbalance

  • Past trauma or injury

  • Chronic stress or inflammation

  • Muscle tension from posture or airway issues Symptoms may include:

  • Jaw pain or tightness

  • Clicking or popping when chewing

  • Headaches or migraines

  • Facial, ear, or neck pain

  • Difficulty opening or closing your mouth

  • Worn, fractured, or sensitive teeth

Our Holistic Approach to TMJ Support

Rather than masking symptoms with medications, we work to identify the root causes of your jaw dysfunction and offer biocompatible, gentle solutions that support healing and alignment.

Our In-Office TMJ Therapies Include:

  • Custom BPA-Free Night Guards
    These removable appliances protect your teeth from nighttime grinding while helping reduce muscle strain and joint pressure. Made from biocompatible materials, they avoid the hormonal risks associated with BPA and other plastics.

  • Bite and Occlusion Assessment
    We evaluate your bite and how your teeth come together to look for misalignments that may be contributing to your symptoms.

  • Dental Work That Supports TMJ Health
    If previous dental work is contributing to bite imbalances, we can replace it with metal-free, BPA-free restorations that are structurally and functionally aligned.

  • Stress and Habit Awareness
    We offer coaching and education on reducing clenching triggers, breathing habits, and posture—because TMJ issues are often connected to deeper lifestyle patterns.

When Specialized Care Is Needed

If your case involves significant joint degeneration, muscular imbalance, or requires advanced imaging or therapy, we’ll refer you to a trusted TMJ specialist who shares our biologically respectful, patient-centered values. We remain in communication to ensure your care stays coordinated and focused on your total health.

Why This Matters Holistically

TMJ dysfunction doesn’t just affect your jaw—it can create a cascade of effects on the nervous system, sleep, digestion, and energy levels. Chronic tension in the jaw often mirrors chronic tension in the body or mind.

Our TMJ support aligns with our values of Curiosity, Compassion, and Collaboration—seeking to understand your full story and support healing at the root.
