Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation Unit for TMD Treatment

Friday, Jan. 10th 2014 9:00 AM

TENS, or Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation, is used in neuromuscular dentistry for the treatment of temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD). A TENS unit is a small, battery powered device that sends gentle electrical pulses into muscles to encourage relaxation and block pain signals. This serves a dual purpose in neuromuscular dentistry by first eliminating the pain associated with TMD, and then relaxing your muscles sufficiently for your dentist to determine your proper jaw alignment.
