What is TENS?
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is a non-invasive therapeutic technique used to relieve pain and muscle tension in the jaw area. In dentistry, TENS is particularly beneficial for patients suffering from temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD) and muscle-related pain, especially when combined with advanced restorative solutions like dental implants to restore proper bite function. The device sends mild electrical impulses to the muscles, promoting relaxation and pain relief while supporting comprehensive care plans such as rehabilitation.
How TENS Benefits Patients
TENS therapy offers immediate relief from pain and muscle tension without the need for medication. Patients benefit from a more comfortable and relaxing treatment experience, especially those dealing with chronic jaw pain or TMD, where specialized care like TMJ / TMD plays a crucial role. Regular TENS sessions can significantly improve jaw function and reduce symptoms, enhancing the patient's quality of life.

I broke my teeth while climbing and had only five days to get everything done. Dr. Rashida was the only one who could deliver in that timeframe—scans, fillings, everything. It was smooth, efficient, and gave me not just a perfect smile but a functional one. Truly an amazing experience at Le dente Clinic.
