TMJ Treatment & Jaw Pain Relief in Cypress, TX


Jaw pain, headaches, clicking, popping, or stiffness when you chew or talk can all be signs of TMJ dysfunction — a condition that affects the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which connects your jaw to the skull. TMJ disorders can dramatically impact daily life, making it difficult to eat, speak, sleep, and function comfortably.

At Revive Chiropractic & Wellness, we help patients of all ages find natural TMJ pain relief through chiropractic adjustments, structural correction, soft tissue release, and posture-focused care. Our goal is to restore proper jaw function and eliminate the inflammation causing nerve irritation.


Understanding TMJ Disorders

The TMJ is one of the most complex joints in the human body. When it becomes misaligned, overworked, or inflamed, the surrounding muscles, nerves, and connective structures become irritated — leading to pain and dysfunction.


What is TMJ?

Temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD or TMJ) refers to a group of painful conditions affecting the jaw joint and its surrounding muscles.


Causes of TMJ Disorders

TMJ issues can stem from several underlying factors, including:

🌟 Teeth Grinding (Bruxism)

Clenching or grinding — especially at night — creates excessive pressure on the jaw joint.

🌟 Jaw, Face, or Sports Injuries

A direct impact can shift the jaw alignment and cause chronic pain.

🌟 Structural Jaw Issues

Some children are born with jaw joint irregularities that predispose them to TMJ problems.

🌟 Referred Pain

Neck, shoulder, or upper back tension can radiate into the jaw.

🌟 Poor Posture

Forward head posture strains the jaw muscles and joint.

🌟 Stress & Anxiety

Emotional stress causes increased muscle tension and jaw clenching.

🌟 Misaligned Bite or Jaw Subluxation

A chiropractic jaw adjustment can help reposition the joint where the mandible meets the skull.


Symptoms of TMJ Disorders

TMJ issues can show up in many ways, such as:

  • Jaw pain or soreness

  • Clicking, popping, or grinding sounds

  • Facial or cheek pain

  • Ear pain, ear pressure, or tinnitus

  • Headaches & migraines

  • Difficulty chewing

  • Limited jaw opening

  • Locked jaw

  • Pain on one or both sides of the jaw

  • Neck tension and upper cervical stiffness

Ignoring TMJ symptoms can lead to worsening inflammation, chronic pain, and reduced jaw mobility.


TMJ Treatment Options

Traditional medical approaches may include medications, mouthguards, or surgery, but these often only treat symptoms—not the structural cause.

Chiropractic care offers a natural, corrective approach designed to restore balance to the jaw joint and surrounding tissues.


The Role of Chiropractic Care in TMJ Treatment

At Revive Chiropractic & Wellness, we use a combination of targeted techniques to relieve TMJ pain and improve jaw function.

Gentle Jaw Adjustments

Realigns the jawbone and improves joint mechanics.

Soft Tissue Release

Relieves tight muscles in the jaw, neck, and shoulders that contribute to TMJ tension.

Posture Correction

Addresses forward head posture or tech neck that can worsen TMJ disorders.

Lifestyle Recommendations

We teach stretches, relaxation techniques, stress management, and bite-friendly habits to support long-term relief.

Our chiropractors treat children, teens, and adults — customizing treatment to each patient’s age and condition.
