Clicking, tight or sore jaw?
Jaw pain, clicking and tension are often linked with neck tension, posture and stress. We assess how your jaw and upper neck are moving and work alongside your dentist where needed.
Common signs we see
- Clicking or popping when you open your mouth
- Jaw tightness, especially in the morning
- Clenching or grinding
- Headaches or neck tension alongside jaw pain
Looking beyond the symptom
Your jaw and upper neck are closely connected. Tension or restriction in one often shows up in the other.
Stress, posture and sleep habits can all add to the load on your jaw.
We measure first, then build your plan
Every new patient starts with a comprehensive assessment, followed by a report of findings where we explain exactly what we found and the path forward.

Jaw pain (TMJ): common questions
Should I see my dentist too?
Yes. If you grind your teeth or have bite concerns, your dentist is an important part of your care, and we’re happy to work alongside them.
Is it related to my headaches?
It can be. Jaw and neck tension are often linked with headaches, which is why we assess them together.
