Hello Friends! This video is about Phase 1 TMJD Treatment and how it differs from Phase 2 TMJD Treatment. The differences are drastic and it's important to follow a sequential series of steps when it comes to treating TMJD in order to get the best results.
Common TMJD signs and symptoms include headaches, jaw pain, neck pain, ear pain, stuffy ears, vertigo, hearing loss, shoulder pain, and numbness/tingling in the face or fingers, clicking/popping & crackling noises in the joints, episodes of the jaw locking or catching.

This is a great video! Helps me understand the significance if the bite change, which i wasnt expecting and had me a little concerned. It's also a relief to hear my current treatment fitting within your model if stage one. The first time i had my clicky, painful jaw investigated, the practitioner immediately suggested surgury 😳 That freaked me out and I didn't seek any further treatment, despite the pain, until years later when my new GP asked me about it. He told me there were other treatment options out there. Thank goodness i didnt take the surgury in the first instance. Now i have an understanding of my case, I believe i would have destroyed any surgical reconstruction without including any physical therapy. Finally i can see a path to recovery!

Your video is very informative. I live in NY and currently in phase 1 which is very expensive for locked TMJ with lower jaw to the right about 10 mm based on the test performed. I have a temorary glued on orthotics on my lower teeth and at night I wear a splint on lower and upper teeth that are one piece to help with bruxism during the night. The dentist recommends phase 2, full mouth reconstruction for correct bite. She wants to build up my teeth because I ground them so much. I am concerned that I will continue to grind my teeth at night because I believe the FMR will not stop me from grinding and I feel that I will have to wear the splints forever. I know that you cannot give an opinion without seeing me. Thanks again for the video.

Hi, Thank you so much for all of your education on tmj. I have severe damage from grinding and years of TMJ, to the point where I my head does not sit properly on my neck, and I have such severe headaches and migraines that I have to lay down every few hours. Further, I cannot even lift my right arm to type because of the pain and dysfunction in my neck that the TMJ has created, which runs down my shoulder and back. in. It has severely impacted my ability to function and even work. What do I do if I need full mouth reconstruction in orthodontia, but I cannot afford it. I live in Georgia, so unfortunately I cannot visit your clinic, but I will be seeing a TMJ specialist soon and I know I definitely need a lot of treatment, but unfortunately insurance does not cover it. My jaw problems have gotten so bad that they have stolen my life and I just want to be able to function again. How do I do this when the costs are so high and I’ve gotten to where I cannot make it through a few hours of the day without severe headaches and dysfunction in my neck and arm but I cannot afford the full treatment? PS, sorry for the typos. I have to use voice dictate and it does not always work well.😮

Thank you Dr Mistry. Your videos are always so helpful! I’ve completed phase 1 (for TMJ dislocation with reduction), about 3 months ago and my dr has told me to wean off the day orthotic. My back teeth do not touch and I feel like the top of my head has nothing to rest on. It’s like the one pain has been replaced by a new one. My dr has told me repeatedly that my back teeth will simply rupture naturally to come together. I really don’t think I believe that. Is that possible?

Hi Priya, great video. So, you mention in phase 1 that you ask patients to take out their tmd splint during eating and drinking, so to not adjust the bite position. I am in my first week of using a tmd splint permissive splint (i think) though it was made without software. The dentist took a bite imprint only. Do some dentists create splints in this way, and make corrections along the way? Can it still be affective?

@Alejandra-vj5ux 2 года назад

Hello, After having a dental crown procedure I was left with TMJ pain. I think when I was having the dental procedure I opened too wide and displaced the joint because I remember hearing the pop. After that I have had pain and my jaw would shift to the right side when I opened. I started Invisalign treatment and the orthodontist said my bite looked good but I mentioned my jaw still shifts to the side when I open my mouth (snap snap crack shift). She agreed and said se would start another treatment. Now I am in the process of getting braces because I was not able to stay consistent with the Invisalign. She placed spacers in my teeth about a week ago and I’ve been experiencing vertigo ever since. I also had my chiropractor take a look at my jaw and he was able to pop it back into place because I can open my mouth without it shifting. However I have ear fullness and vertigo still. I don’t know if I should still go ahead with the braces or if I should ask my orthodontist anything specifically? I feel she is not as well informed about TMJD as a specialist.

@marilascelles4402 2 года назад

Great video! I was wondering what happens if the bite is changed during Phase 1, but the patient can't or won't undergo Phase 2? Are they improved in terms of their TMD and doing well on that front, but just look funny aesthetically or have a totally non-functional chewing system?

@theTMJdoc 2 года назад

The bite changes in Phase 1, if they even occur, are typically very minor and don't result in looking "funny" aesthetically or impacting chewing. I lower the risk of the bite changing because I wean my patients off of the daytime orthotic in a timely manner AND I always ask them to remove the daytime orthotic when eating or drinking. For those that have to wear the orthotic 24/7, the bite changes can be much more drastic.

So if sometimes the nighttime orthotic is not worn/ less hours worn, it will start clicking again though - does this still mean the jaw is in a healthy functioning state?

@CielBlanche Месяц назад

My TMD seemed to result from sleep clenching and/or heavy retractive muscular pull against the discs (eg: hyoid clenching). I saw an oral medicine specialist who said that what you describe as "Phase 2" sounds unnecessary in my case because there wasn't a problem with my bite to begin with. That sounded well-reasoned to me, but I'm just a layman - what do you think about cases like that?

@deepapatel192 7 месяцев назад

Hello. I am slightly confused. I was of the understanding the cause of TMJ/D symptoms maybe due to jaw misalignment and incorrect bite and so the goal of the first phase is to find the optimal bite which relaxes the muscles. Why then would we want to avoid the bite changing in Phase 1 if we want an optimal bite?

@theTMJdoc 7 месяцев назад

Because changing the bite will make the muscles and joints more dysfunctional. The muscles and joints must be addressed and brought to health first.

@Sesilona 2 года назад

After completing phase 1, if the bite hasn't changed and the patient doesn't have to do phase 2, how long do the good results obtained from phase one last? Do your patients usually stay pain and symptom Free for the long term? Thanks!

@dianestofer1970 Год назад

My dentist referred me to a local orthodontist that has proposed Phase 1 & 2. I am inclined to begin with Phase 1 and see if Phase 2 is needed. However, the cost will be greater if Phase 2 is not chosen from the start of treatment. One joint is bone on bone due to years of clenching and grinding. (I've worn a nightguard for years and I have had traditional braces as a teen and Invisalign as an adult.) The previous Invisalign treatment was to correct my bite and TMJD so signing up for expensive aligners (again) gives me pause. However, protecting my joint from further destruction is of greatest importance. Would it be short-sighted to believe Phase 1 could be sufficient as long as I wore the GELB appliance at night forever?

Is it normal to develop a posterior open bit with TMJ splint therapy phase 1? And if so are braces needed or do you refer these patients out for braces after phase 1 to correct it ?

the Bite changes can definitely occur. As for posterior open bite specifically, that depends on your pre-treatment bite and where the splint is holding your jaw. Some patients do need braces after treatment, others don't.

If someone likely has tmj because of a tie, or narrow palate, isn’t expansion with something like MSE the answer though? Or even trying myo and tie first to see if you wouldn’t even need everything else? 😊 thanks Also I’ve heard toothborne appliances or braces only move teeth and won’t improve airway, so very confusing

@theTMJdoc Месяц назад

Hi there! I tried incorporating myofunctional therapy for my TMJ patients and it made their pain worse. This is because myofunctional therapy is a workout for the muscles that are already overworked and dysfunctional. Once the TMJ issues have gotten to a certain point, the best thing to do is calm the muscles down and decompress the joints with TMJ orthotics. Myofunctional therapy will not unlock a jaw that’s locked closed. What do you mean by “toothborne appliances”? My orthotics don’t move teeth. Braces do and Invisalign does.

@goodvibesxox Месяц назад

@@theTMJdoc I get jaw tension, chronic headaches, fatigue and found out I have a posterior tie, and do have some popping at times/deviates when opening a bit. But I never have pain like when eating, or it never locked. So does that mean an orthotic isn’t necessarily needed? When I say appliances I mean like the ones out there like dna, shwartz etc that claim to expand the maxilla. Then there is mse etc which is bone borne. I figure having a small palate and underdeveloped jaws may be a root cause but it’s hard to know if you truly need expansion? Does it also depend on if you have sleep apnea I was confused as many talk about mewing and how you can expand with tongue alone. But even then if the teeth are just moving to give tongue space I wonder if this even helps the airway or not though (whereas MSE splits the suture). I’ve been told tooth borne appliances have caused damage in some people too

No if the condyle is flattened it is not reversible.

Hi!! Do you have any doctors you can recommend in the Atlanta or Georgia area? Or even nearby states. Also are the splints you use for treatment maxilla or mandibular. Thank you!

I'm sorry I don't. We typically fit our orthotics on the lower arch.

Hi Dr. Priya, I have been given a Gelb appliance for my phase 1 treatment and it has reduced the symptoms. I wear it 24/7 as prescribed and it has been over 4 weeks since I have started. I notice that I am clenching on the orthotic. Is this because my muscles are being stretch? Is this normal and would my clenching reduce over the course of my phase 1 treatment base from your experience? Thank you.

@theTMJdoc 2 года назад

I don’t know of a good solution to decrease nighttime clenching activity unfortunately.
