Complex Multiple Source TMJ Craniofacial PainThis gentleman had a history of accidents and trauma. He called himself "an accident waiting to happen." He was also a bruxer and clencher.He was concerned about losing sleep and not being able to control his headaches with medications prescribed by his neurologist. His previous exams confirmed bulging disks in his neck vertebrae and lower back. Questionable Invasive Dental Surgery TreatmentHis medical history also included dental treatment consisting of orthodontics as well as orthognathic surgery to correct a bad overbite. The jaw surgery was performed for cosmetic reasons as well as a heroic attempt to re-align his bite and his jaws in order to alleviate his TMJ pain and headaches.. Our examination revealed severe compression of his jaw joints as well as severe muscular dysfunction of the entire head and neck musculature. The dental surgeries produced a nice cosmetic result although it did not alleviate his TMJ problems. The patient reported, ironically, that his headaches increased after the surgery. This phenomenon can be common with patients who undergo jaw surgery in an attempt to cure an overbite problem and TMJ issues. We have yet to see a surgery patient realize a reduction in facial or head pain following surgical approaches. As such.... we never recommend such invasive and otherwise extreme measures. The patient was fitted with decompression appliances, which cured his headaches. During his treatment the patient stated that he loved to lift weights and exercise strenuously in order to take his mind off of his pain. He was immediately instructed to change his exercise program as he was over-stregthening his neck and shoulder muscles. Many popular exercises are innapropriate activities. The wrong muscles get stronger... which further agravates pain. An entirely new work-out regimen was prescribed and implemented. Physical therapy was provided to ensure proper posture and muscular balance. The patient's reported craniofacial pain was reduced within 6 months. Neck problems were also dimished. A complete reconstructive dental treatment was also necessary in order to help stabilize his bite.
