Do You Grind Your Teeth or Experience Jaw Pain?

Myofunctional therapy helps address teeth grinding, clenching, and jaw pain by retraining muscle patterns, improving tongue posture, and reducing tension in the muscles surrounding the jaw. See if Therapy is right for you

Why Muscle Patterns Matter

Grinding and clenching are often driven by muscle habits rather than the jaw itself — tension patterns built up throughout the day and night that place ongoing strain on the jaw joint and surrounding muscles.

Untreated grinding and jaw tension can lead to:‍ ‍

• Jaw pain, soreness, or clicking

• Headaches, especially upon waking

• Worn or damaged teeth

• Tension that extends into the neck and shoulders

What Causes It

Grinding and clenching are frequently linked to low tongue posture, an oral resting posture that places excess strain on the jaw, airway issues, or ongoing muscle tension patterns.

How Myofunctional Therapy Helps

• ‍Targeted muscle exercises to build proper tongue and jaw resting posture

• Tension release techniques to ease strain on the jaw and surrounding muscles

• Habit correction to interrupt clenching and grinding patterns

• Daily practice routines built into a personalized therapy kit

Virtual Sessions

Sessions are 20-30 minutes, and jaw tension, tongue posture, and resting patterns can be observed and corrected over video just as effectively as in person — accessible from anywhere, no matter the city or country.
