Non-Surgical TMJ Care Options In Tampa, FL

Avoid Neck and Jaw Surgery with Regenexx

Disorders of the TMJ caused by car accidents, muscular imbalance, braces, or other dental work are particularly challenging and often treatment options are no better than at-home remedies. Common treatment ranges from electric nerve stimulation to trigger point injections and acupuncture, but these methods treat the symptoms and not the underlying problem. Jaw surgery and jaw replacement can result in lengthy rehab, immobility, and further jaw or nerve damage. Regenexx invented a non-surgical procedure that uses your body’s natural healing agents to treat TMJ pain and dysfunction.

During this outpatient procedure, our expert physicians use precise image guidance to inject custom concentrations of your body’s natural healing agents into the precise areas of damage for better function and mobility. Call our patient care coordinators today to get started on your path to recovery.
