Steps Not to Worsen TMD - Bangalore

According to fresh scientific evidence, one of the reasons of TMD could be as simple as a tongue tie. Tongue ties are a hereditary condition in which the tongue and lower jaw are pushed backwards, putting pressure on the TMJ. They can also cause narrow jaws if not taken care of. As a result, the first step in prevention is to have the newborn baby examined by a tongue-tie specialist. This will aid the child in avoiding TMD in the future.
There is no set age at which orthodontic treatment should begin. The sooner you start, the better. Narrow jaws can be extended more easily and quickly if the child is seen by a Neuromuscular Orthodontist at an early age. As much as feasible, extraction orthodontics should be avoided.
