Mandibular and Facial Pain

One common cause is craniomandibular dysfunction (CMD). This dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint can trigger pain throughout the entire body via muscle chains and nerve connections, and even considerably change the statics of the body.
 

Diagnosis and therapy

In order to be able to better treat these symptoms, we offer a special examination and therapy plan, developed by Dr. Günther Malek and based on a comprehensive and structured mandible function diagnosis.

Finding the causes

Multiple symptoms can often make a specific diagnosis difficult, because even a difference in leg length or a problem with the cervical vertebrae can cause jaw problems and facial pain.

To treat these dysfunctions quickly and lastingly, all affected areas must be accordingly balanced.

This includes:

• occlusion, tooth position
• multiple or unilateral muscle tension
• interaction with the spine and body statics
• dysfunction of the mandibular joint and masticatory muscles

Mandibular function check

The mandibular function check is the basis for a targeted diagnosis of pain in the jaw and face, as well as of tinnitus.

Individual therapy

With our diagnostics, we identify individual causes of mandibular and facial pain and can initiate targeted treatment.

To do so, several treatment options are available:

• Medical osteopathy / manual medicine

  To cure dysfunctions of the jaw and body

• Temporomandibular joint therapy / physical therapy

  For physiological repositioning of the temporomandibular joint and the entire musculoskeletal system

• High-performance laser therapy

  High-intensity cold laser, with which even deep muscle and tissue layers can be treated

• Acupuncture

  To relieve pain and functional limitations in the area of the temporomandibular joint and masticatory muscles
