Question

question 12 (mandatory) (2 points) listen what treatment is best to prevent bruxism and tmj pain/dysfunction? a) neck massage b) mouth guard c) orthopedic pillow d) aspirin e) ice packs

Explanation:

Bruxism is teeth - grinding and clenching, and TMJ (temporomandibular joint) issues are related to the jaw joint. A mouth guard can protect teeth from damage due to bruxism and also help with TMJ pain/dysfunction by providing a barrier and re - aligning the jaw in some cases. Neck massage mainly helps with neck muscle tension, an orthopedic pillow is for spinal alignment during sleep, aspirin is a pain - reliever but doesn't prevent the root cause, and ice packs are for reducing inflammation and pain temporarily.
