Does a night guard help with TMJ?
A sleep mouthguard can be beneficial for managing TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorder, which causes pain and clicking in the jaw area. Wearing a night guard can relieve pressure on the jaw joint, reducing symptoms. Other helpful treatments include avoiding sudden jaw movements, using ice packs for inflammation, choosing softer foods, and practicing jaw stretches to ease tension.
