Well, that was before TMJ Relax. Until now, symptoms related to your temporomandibular joint (TMJ) like chronic headaches, ringing in your ears, indescribable tension, or the mental anguish caused by all of the above have had you constantly on edge. Am I right? And who can blame you.
That one tiny joint causes suffering for millions like you, every day. But now there's relief - really (and finally).
TMJ Relax is new and innovative, and it'll move your jaw into its right place so there's no more suffering. Dentists across the US are recommending TMJ Relax and we're working quickly to ensure they're at a provider near you.
This is no sketchy, “mail order dental” system. You’ll see a professional dentist, specially trained by our expert team, who will determine if TMJ Relax is the right treatment for you. If so, you’ll stay for a few minutes to have your bite scanned.
You’ll head back to the dentist to receive an orthopedic device made just for you with our patented RightBite software.
Gently sitting only on your lower teeth, it leaves your bite in its most relaxed position. Your dentist will make any necessary manual adjustments, and off you go.
You’ll wear your device day and night. For most patients, the tension gradually subsides, along with pain in the jaw and elsewhere. Relief—at last.
TMJ Relax is not a mouthguard, or even a custom orthotic. These types of typical TMJ appliances are simply molds of false hope. That’s because they’re designed based on a patient’s current bite— and when you’re left with the same bite, you get the same symptoms.
TMJ Relax treats the root problem, not just the symptom, to help ease the pain for good.
Like we said, a mouthguard is not the answer…

TMJ Relax Treatment is a new system, created by one of the leading TMJ specialists in the US, that simplifies treatment for anyone suffering with symptoms of TMJ disorder. TMJ Relax does what no one else has thought to do: treat the most common underlying cause of TMJ symptoms, which is a misaligned bite.
You’re prescribed the system after seeing a professional dentist, who then creates an orthopedic device for your jaw based on TMJ Relax’s unique Rightbite protocol. This device sits on your lower teeth and allows your jaw to rest in a position that reduces tension on the temporomandibular joint. TMJ Relax is the first product of its kind cleared by the FDA to address TMJ symptoms like headaches, teeth grinding, and muscle tension. With its simple, streamlined approach and great value, TMJ Relax is the new first best treatment for anyone suffering with TMJ disorders.
If you’ve been suffering from one or more symptoms associated with temporomandibular joint disorder for more than a few weeks, then TMJ Relax treatment is a fantastic option for you. Do any of these symptoms sound familiar? Headaches, migraines, facial muscle pain, clenching or grinding your teeth, ear pain, ear fullness or ringing, fatigue when chewing, lock jaw, pain during normal activities like eating, speaking, laughing, or yawning. If so, we recommend you see a TMJ Relax doctor for a consultation.
It doesn’t matter how old you are or where you’re at on the spectrum of symptoms. TMJ Relax can help you, without disrupting your busy life.
You’ll wear the TMJ Relax device on your lower teeth to keep your jaw in a comfortably relaxed position. It’s the best position for you, specifically, that reduces stress and strain on your bite—and thus the muscles around it. In a relatively short period of time, this reduction of tension eases the pain and discomfort you’ve been experiencing.
Your TMJ Relax doctor will check in with you along the way to monitor your progress and ensure your device fits correctly, so you get the best possible result.
TMJ Relax treatment starts with a consultation with a TMJ Relax-trained dentist. They’ll check out your jaw, evaluate your symptoms and let you know if you’re a good candidate for TMJ Relax. If so, they’ll scan your mouth using a computer to make a model of your top and bottom teeth. They’ll then place a small prop on your lower teeth and ask you to bite naturally until you feel your teeth first touch the prop. Your bite will be scanned in that position. We call that position Rightbite, which is used with our algorithm to determine interferences in your bite and design a TMJ Relax device specifically for you. Once your device is ready, your dentist puts it in and makes adjustments to it periodically as your jaw position settles over the next few months. You only have one job in all this: to wear the device!
The timing depends on how complex your situation is. You could complete your treatment in as little as 6 months—but you’ll start seeing results in a matter of weeks. After about 6 months, your dentist will review your symptoms with you and determine what’s next. Some people will go on to wear their TMJ Relax device long term, as needed. For others, TMJ Relax becomes a stepping stone to see that they actually need some orthodontic treatment to further adjust their jaw position. That’s what makes TMJ Relax a great first step—it tests how the symptoms are related to your bite before making any permanent changes with orthodontics.
Great question. It’s important to us that any dentist prescribing TMJ Relax has been personally trained by our team. That’s how we know all our patients are receiving the same high standard of care. Right now we’re encouraging all interested patients to take our assessment and let us know who you normally see for dental care. In the near future, we’ll have a full list of providers you can choose from. Whether it ends up being your current dentist or not, you can be sure the provider is an approved TMJ Relax specialist qualified to administer your care (and you don’t have to break up with your current dentist, either).
Check out our reviews—some patients were suffering for more than 50 years before they found relief with TMJ Relax. That said, every person is unique, which is why the TMJ Relax process starts with a consultation. During your consultation, your TMJ Relax dentist will help you determine what TMJ Relax treatment could do for your symptoms. We can’t guarantee a particular treatment outcome, but encourage you to share your treatment goals with your TMJ Relax dentist at your consultation.
The cost of TMJ Relax treatment is affordable, especially when you consider how much you can spend visiting all kinds of specialists and trying a whole bunch of treatments that don’t work. It varies a little by location, but is typically around $2,000. There are options to make TMJ Relax treatment more affordable for you, too. Because TMJ Relax is a medical device, it may be covered under your medical insurance. There’s also the option to spread the payments out over several months if that would be helpful to you.
Fair question! $2,000 for anything can feel daunting at first. But other specialists will likely quote you a lot more, and the costs of over-the-counter treatments and second (and third) opinions certainly add up. TMJ prevents you from going straight to surgery or extensive orthodontic treatments you may not need. For these reasons—and the fact that it can ease what can be excruciating symptoms pretty quickly—patients find it to be well worth their investment.
Yes, it’s quite comfy. The device is relatively small, custom fitted to your mouth, and has no sharp points or materials. It’s worn only on your bottom teeth, so you don’t have a whole mouth full. You can speak while it’s in, too. Like anything you wear, it’ll take some getting used to, but it won’t take long and it won’t feel like it’s in your way. Many patients wear it 20 hours a day, no problem.
What’s great about TMJ Relax is it’s often covered by medical insurance, since it’s a treatment for a medical issue. TMJ Relax has a team that will help you submit to your insurance and figure out coverage. You can relax while we deal with the hold music.
TMJ Relax does come with a 12-month Total Relaxation Guarantee. We want you to truly relax, after all. This means if the Rightbite device you receive is fractured or broken during the first year, we’ll replace it for free. (Your dentist may charge you a little extra for their time, but the device is on us.) If you happen to throw it in the trash on accident, we’ll send you a new one for a small fee.
Yes. TMJ Relax works the same regardless of any previous dental work you’ve had done.

TMJ Relax devices are made of a semi-rigid resin which is cleared by the FDA. All you really need to know is, it’s safe and comfortable.
There’s an adjustment period at the beginning where it will affect your speech a bit. Most patients say it takes a couple of weeks for their tongue to get used to having a device in their mouth. Just stick with it and your speech will get back to normal before long!
