Myofunctional Therapy

This innovative approach focuses on retraining the muscles of your face, jaw, and tongue to function properly. This reduces strain on your TMJs and alleviates your symptoms.

This promotes long-term relief and improved overall health.

Summus Laser

MLS or Summus Laser Treatment

Advanced laser technology provides gentle, non-invasive relief for TMJ pain and inflammation. The photobiometric laser used in our office targets therapeutic energy to the affected areas. This stimulates healing, reduces pain, and improves joint function. This leading-edge treatment offers a safe, comfortable, and effective alternative to more invasive procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions About TMJ Therapy in Utah

Q: What is the best approach to TMJ treatment?

A: Effective TMJ treatment starts with identifying the root cause of your jaw dysfunction. At the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Utah, we create personalized plans that may include bite stabilization, orthopedic appliances, physical therapy, and breathing support to relieve pain and restore healthy jaw function.

Q: How do I find a TMJ specialist near me?

A: If you’re searching for a TMJ specialist near me, look for a provider who understands the connection between jaw alignment, muscle function, and airway health. Our Utah-based team offers advanced diagnostics and multidisciplinary care to deliver lasting TMJ relief.

Q: Can a TMJ mouth guard really help?

A: Yes. A custom TMJ mouth guard—often called a stabilization splint—can reduce joint strain, prevent clenching or grinding, and allow inflamed tissues to heal. It’s a common and effective component of conservative TMJ therapy, especially for nighttime wear.

Q: What should I do during a TMJ flare-up?

A: During a TMJ flare-up, it’s important to rest your jaw, avoid hard or chewy foods, apply moist heat or cold packs, and follow your specialist’s care plan. If flare-ups are frequent, a professional evaluation can help determine the cause and guide more effective treatment options.
