Living with jaw pain? You’re not alone. TMJ disorder—often called “TMJ dysfunction”—affects millions of people and can make everyday activities like eating, speaking, and even smiling uncomfortable. The good news? You don’t have to live with it. At Anagen Medical Institute in Edmond, OK, we specialize in non-surgical treatments that provide lasting relief.
What Is TMJ Disorder?
Your temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects your jaw to your skull. When this joint becomes inflamed or misaligned, it can cause:
Jaw pain or tenderness
Clicking or popping sounds
Headaches or facial pain
Difficulty opening or closing your mouth
Common causes include teeth grinding, stress, arthritis, or injury. Left untreated, TMJ disorder can worsen over time.
Non-Surgical TMJ Treatments That Work
Surgery isn’t the only option—and for most patients, it’s not necessary. At Anagen Medical Institute, we offer two highly effective, non-invasive treatments:
1. Splint Therapy
Custom-made oral splints help reduce strain on your jaw, improve alignment, and relieve pain. They’re comfortable, easy to wear, and often deliver noticeable improvement within weeks.
2. ePRF Joint Injections
You may have heard of PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy. ePRF is the next generation—think PRP, but stronger and longer-lasting. Made entirely from your own blood, ePRF provides concentrated growth factors and a natural fibrin matrix that promotes healing inside the joint. Many patients who have suffered for years find relief after just one injection.
