myTMJ Pen for Dentists
It's all over Instagram, Reddit, and YouTube - a tool called "myTMJ Pen" is sweeping the TMJD community. But what is it!? Does it work? And is it worth buying?
What is it?
It isn't the cure. But myTMJ Pen is a drug free, doctor recommended tool that may help you manage the pain, muscle tension, and limited mobility associated with your TMJ Disorder.
It does this by offering the most convenient way to apply simultaneous massaging pressure, heat and vibration to your head, neck and jaw muscles - all science backed methods to help maintain TMJ wellness.
And because it was designed by someone who actually understands TMJ Disorder, the heat is fully adjustable between 100F and 118F. As is the vibration, to make sure that you have a setting that feels comfortable for the joint. The aluminum tip is specially designed to apply scraping and pinpoint pressure on the affected muscle tissue. 
Does it work?
Patients with TMJ Disorder are constantly battling muscular imbalances, tension, and muscle spasms (aka trigger points/muscle knots) that refer pain all over the head.
Heat and massage are both science backed tools for potentially managing these conditions. Find supporting research here.
Essentially, both heat and massage may work to promote blood flow, increase muscular elasticity, and release tension.
While at the same time, the heat and vibration work to minimize pain by overriding the localized pain signals. This may help reduce the stress and discomfort experienced during TMJ massage and mobilization.
myTMJ Pen for Dentists
It's estimated between 5-12% of the population deals with TMJ Dysfunction. So even if you don't treat it, you WILL come across it.
TMJD patients suffer from limited range of motion, jaw muscle pain, and joint damage.
Therefore it is common for a routine dental visit with extended periods of mouth opening to trigger extreme TMJ flare ups of tension and pain. And myTMJ Pen was designed to help.
It has been clinically shown that heat and massage may help release muscle tension and improve range of motion. Additionally it has been shown both heat and vibration help reducing pain perception by overriding localized pain signals. Read supporting research here.
myTMJ Pen is an easy, handheld way to combine all 3 modalities.
Imagine if you didn't offer anesthetics during fillings. Your patients would be running out the door. This is of course a dramatic example, but on a smaller scale - your TMD patients don't feel their pain is accommodated.
myTMJ Pen is a major step you can take in mitigating some of the pain and discomfort caused by forced jaw opening and mobilization.
But it’s more than that. As the first contact for most TMJD patients, you probably understand how few options exist for diagnosis and treatment. They're often left to suck it up and deal with the pain for years.
Which is why it will be so impactful when you offer a space that understands and cares enough to try to mitigate that pain.
We guarantee you'll notice how happy your patients are when you offer them this tool. So much so that they'll ask to buy it from you. Or your money back.
On the business side of things making your patients happy has an obvious value proposition: they book more appointments with higher retention and referral rates.
But myTMJ Pen can help keep the lights on in other ways as well.
You will be one of the only practices in the world to offer your patients a pain relief tool for their TMJ. They'll be begging you to take it home.
Which is why we offer wholesale pricing and referral bonuses to our practitioners. Contact us for more details on this.
