Jaw pain isn’t just annoying—it can mess with your day, your sleep, and even how you eat or speak. If you’ve been putting up with a stiff, sore, or clicking jaw in Mumbai, it’s time to stop guessing and start treating the root cause. TMJ Sleep Clinic, led by Dr. Srishti Tody, is one of the few clinics in India entirely focused on treating jaw pain at its source.
Here’s the thing: most people don’t even realise that their jaw issues are linked to something deeper—like TMJ disorder, clenching at night, or breathing problems during sleep. That’s where TMJ Sleep Clinic steps in with a fresh, specialised approach.
What Causes Jaw Pain?
Jaw pain is often brushed off or misunderstood. Many think it’s just stress or a minor dental issue. But if it’s chronic, there’s usually more going on under the surface. Common causes include:
- TMJ dysfunction (issues with the temporomandibular joint)
- Bruxism (unconscious clenching or grinding, especially at night)
- Facial muscle tension or overuse
- Jaw injuries or trauma
- Sleep disorders like sleep apnea
Symptoms can also overlap with headaches, ear pain, neck stiffness, and fatigue—which makes diagnosis tricky. That’s why seeing a specialist matters.
Meet Dr. Srishti Tody: India’s Jaw Pain Expert
At TMJ Sleep Clinic, you’re not walking into a regular dental setup. Dr. Srishti Tody is one of the only doctors in India with formal training in Orofacial Pain and Dental Sleep Medicine. She’s spent years studying how jaw function, facial muscles, nerves, and breathing patterns are all connected—something most clinics overlook.
Dr. Tody doesn’t treat jaw pain like a one-off symptom. She looks at your entire orofacial system, your posture, and how well you sleep. Her approach is conservative, non-invasive, and always tailored to your specific condition.
What Makes TMJ Sleep Clinic Different?
This clinic isn’t trying to do everything. It’s built for people with jaw pain and sleep-related disorders—and that focus makes a huge difference. Here’s how:
1. Specialised Focus
They only treat jaw pain, facial pain, snoring, and sleep apnea. Nothing else. That means you’re not getting general advice—you’re getting expert care from someone who lives and breathes this work.
2. Whole-Body Perspective
Jaw issues rarely exist in isolation. Dr. Tody examines how you breathe, sleep, chew, speak, and carry stress in your body. If your pain is connected to poor posture, nerve compression, or nighttime clenching, she’ll identify it quickly.
3. No Surgery. No Pills.
Treatment here is non-surgical and drug-free. Some of the methods include:
- Custom jaw orthotics (splints)
- Myofunctional therapy (facial exercises to strengthen and retrain muscles)
- Neuromuscular relaxation techniques
- Jaw physiotherapy
- Breathing retraining and posture correction
Who Should Visit?
If you’ve been dealing with any of the following, it’s probably time to stop hoping it’ll go away on its own:
- Clicking or popping jaw
- Pain when chewing, yawning, or talking
- Tension or pain near the ears
- Locked jaw or restricted movement
- Morning headaches or jaw stiffness
- Chronic facial pain or neck tension
These are signs your jaw joint or muscles aren’t working well together—and it’s not something that’ll fix itself with a basic mouthguard or painkiller.
