TMJ disorder and headaches
 One out of every 10 Americans
suffers from
chronic headaches, and they spend over half a billion dollars
every year for over-the-counter medications to relieve their pain. They
never imagine that their headaches may be caused by TMJ, and that their
pain is the result of a bad bite.
At Peter K Yu DDS we know a bad bite can put your jaw-to-skull relationship out of alignment.
When this happens, TMJ symptoms occur. This cluster of symptoms can
include: headaches, earaches, ear ringing, loud jaw clicking, even
stiffness and pain in the jaw, neck, shoulders and back. This cluster has
puzzled doctors in the past. Now we can put a name to it: TMJ.
According to recent studies, more than 40 million Americans (including
many in the Milpitas, San Jose & Fremont areas) suffer with
TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction) or MPD (Myofascial Pain
Dysfunction). The good news is that we at Peter K Yu DDS are taking the lead in finding
solutions.
If you, or someone you love, suffer from the symptoms of TMJ, set up an
appointment by calling us at (408) 942-9999 soon. You may find that TMJ is the missing
piece in the puzzle -- and, that the treatment works!
