Temporomandibular joint problems
What does a “pelvic obliquity” have to do with orthodontics?
A lot!
Almost 90% of the adult population suffers from pelvic obliquity.
This leads to one-sided tension in the muscles.
If the tolerance limit is exceeded due to stress or other strains, the first reactions often occur in the jaw and head area.
This leads to teeth grinding and clenching, and the jaw joints are misloaded.
This can lead to pain in the jaw joint, jaw joint clicking, headaches, cervical spine syndrome, back pain and misaligned teeth.
In collaboration with physiotherapists and orthopaedists, targeted splint therapy can restore balance to the muscles and thus restore well-being.
