Unfortunately, however, if you have a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, it could also be making your symptoms worse. Here\u2019s how chewing gum can harm your jaw, and how <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ranchoparkdentalgroup.com\/contact.html\">your dentist<\/a> can help alleviate your TMJ pain once and for all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chewing Gum and Your Temporomandibular Joints<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When your joints are strained or misaligned due to a temporomandibular joint disorder, putting undue stress on them is a bad idea. While it\u2019s important to eat a full diet despite this type of condition, chewing gum places excess wear on them that could worsen your pain. Additionally, it can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Worsen fatigue in the muscles of the jaw, which may result in increased stiffness and tension.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increase inflammation by generating extra motion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Misalign the jaw if you favor chewing on one side of the mouth over another.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increase pain and instances of jaw popping and clicking.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can I Tell if Chewing Gum is Making My TMJ Symptoms Worse?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While it may not be immediately obvious, there are many problems that can occur because of regular gum chewing if you have a TMJ disorder. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Frequent headaches or earaches.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increased jaw clicking or popping.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Jaw stiffness or difficulties opening and closing the mouth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Soreness after chewing gum.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can My Dentist Help?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The good news is that your dentist has treatment options available for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ranchoparkdentalgroup.com\/emergency-dentistry.html#tmj\">TMJ disorders<\/a>, including wearing a nightguard for bruxism (teeth grinding) and a variety of other options such as orthodontic care, based on your individual symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remember, while it\u2019s true that gum chewing can make TMJ disorder symptoms worse, it doesn&#8217;t have to be that way. If you are experiencing any of the above, including jaw stiffness, a clicking or popping sound when you open and close your mouth, chronic headaches, neck or back pain, or even ringing of the ears (tinnitus) speak to your dentist today about a TMJ evaluation and get back your healthy, pain free smile!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Dr. Silvera<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ranchoparkdentalgroup.com\/meet-dr-albert-silvera.html\">Dr. Albert Silvera<\/a> earned his undergraduate degree at Yeshiva University in NYC and his dental doctorate at the UCLA School of Dentistry.
