stretching the masticatory muscles during the day. This process should start afterremoval of the MAD and the exercises to reestablish posterior tooth-to-tooth contacts.The patient should be instructed to stretch the jaw by placing the tongue on the palatebehind the upper front teeth and stretching open as far as they can stretch withoutpulling the tongue off of the palate (Fig. 6). The stretch is held for 6 seconds, repeated6 times, and the process is repeated 6 times per day. This exercise stretches themasseter, medial pterygoid, and temporalis muscles. If the muscles are severelytender, the patient should use moist heat for 5 minutes before the stretching exercisesand then ice to cool down the muscles for 5 minutes after the stretching.The patient should also be instructed to assume a jaw rest position during the day.

This practice helps the patient to avoid daytime clenching that can keep the musclestender. The patient is instructed to place the tongue on the palate similar to the jawposition assumed for the stretch in Fig. 6, but the lips are brought together and theteeth kept slightly apart. The patient is also instructed to breathe through the nosein this position. This rest position helps to reduce masseter, medial pterygoid, andtemporalis muscle activity.

ADJUNCTIVE MEDICATIONS

In addition to the medications discussed earlier, other classes of medications can behelpful in mediating the pain. Muscle relaxants can be a helpful addition to treating the

The left image shows the tongue on the palate behind theupper front teeth and the jaw being stretched to the point at which the tongue wouldbe pulled off the palate if the patient opened wider. The right image shows the patientstretching the posterior neck muscles that are often painful in association with the jawmuscles.
