Bruxism & TMJ in Barrio de Salamanca, Madrid
Treatment of bruxism and TMJ pain with night guards, physiotherapy, injections and other therapies.
Comprehensive TMJ and Bruxism Recovery Method
Do you wake up every morning with a tired jaw, pain in your temples or constant pressure in your neck? If you've tried night guards and the pain persists, it's not that your case has no solution; it's that they're probably only treating the "hardware" (your teeth) and forgetting the "software" (your nervous system).
Bruxism is a functional disorder characterized by the involuntary habit of clenching or grinding teeth. During a stress-related bruxism episode, your jaw can exert up to 70 kg of pressure. It's a massive force that collapses your muscles, blocks your cervical vertebrae and generates that annoying "helmet sensation" in your head.
At ENIQ we have developed a 360° approach designed to break the cycle of chronic pain. We are not a conventional clinic: we are specialists in restoring your balance through our Comprehensive Recovery Method.
Bruxism and TMJ disorders are treated with a tailored protocol on C. de Hermosilla, 78, steps from Goya metro: individually made night guards, relaxing microinjections for the masseter, precision occlusal adjustment and intra-articular injection when there is joint pain. We add diathermy, dry needling, acupuncture and NESA neuromodulation for the associated neck tension. Dr. Alejandra de la Rosa cares for patients from Recoletos and Lista who arrive with tooth wear and morning headaches.
The "Pain Triangle": why TMJ is not just about the jaw
Most treatments fail because they are incomplete. Our method is the only one that understands the "Pain Triangle": if your jaw clenches, your neck locks and your head hurts.
The temporomandibular joint generates massive forces during bruxism. It causes joint inflammation, deep muscle spasms and collapse of facial muscles.
The jaw force is transmitted to the neck as a stability mechanism. It causes vertebral blockage, persistent stiffness and loss of mobility.
Jaw and neck in constant tension generate tension headaches. The problem acquires a neurological component due to the hyperalert state of the nervous system.
Of patients recover normal TMJ mobility after the protocol.
In orofacial and cervical chronic pain perception intensity.
To experience dramatic improvements in pain, muscle tension and function.
Do you recognize these symptoms?
- • Abnormal tooth wear
- • Jaw pain upon waking
- • Morning headaches or "helmet sensation"
- • Dental sensitivity
- • Pain in facial muscles and neck
- • Jaw clicking or locking
- • Non-restorative sleep and chronic fatigue
The protocol can combine a custom-made night guard, which protects your teeth from wear, with therapies for muscle and neck tension. Microinjections of botulinum toxin for bruxism relax the masseter and reduce the force with which you clench your teeth. If the pain is in the joint itself, a TMJ injection helps reduce inflammation and improve joint lubrication. For the "software", NESA® neuromodulation uses imperceptible microcurrents that help regulate the nervous system.
What does our Recovery Method consist of?
Our methodology is based on the synergistic combination of the most advanced medical technology and precision medicine techniques, acting on three simultaneous levels.
Treatment in 3 levels: the 360° approach
"Software" Regulation (Nervous System)
NESA® Neuromodulation: the pillar of our method. Through imperceptible microcurrents, we "reset" your autonomic nervous system. We switch your body from alert mode to relaxation, reducing the involuntary urge to clench.
"Hardware" Release (Muscles and Fascia)
Advanced acupuncture and dry needling to locate and deactivate trigger points in masseters and temporals. Complemented with NOVAFON Power 2, sonic vibratory therapy whose waves penetrate up to 6 cm deep, relaxing deep musculature painlessly and pleasantly.
Regeneration and Precision Medicine
Medical diathermy to apply deep heat and accelerate TMJ tissue regeneration, reducing chronic inflammation. In severe cases, we integrate botulinum toxin or anti-inflammatory injections to block the acute pain cycle.
By treating all three points simultaneously with NESA®, NOVAFON, Diathermy and Acupuncture, we achieve what a night guard alone cannot: stopping your nervous system from sending the clenching signal.
Specialized treatments available
Night Guards
Custom-made rigid splint that protects the teeth from bruxism wear and relieves tension in the temporomandibular joint.
Relaxing Microinjections
Small doses of botulinum toxin in the chewing muscles to reduce the force of clenching and grinding.
BruxiSpa™
Comprehensive, personalized bruxism treatment combining diathermy, physiotherapy, dry needling, a night guard and other therapies.
Intra-articular Injection
Injection of medication directly into the temporomandibular joint to treat pain and inflammation.
Diathermy & Tecartherapy
Therapies that use electrodes to generate heat in deep tissues and relieve TMJ pain and inflammation.
Occlusal Adjustment
Selective grinding of premature contacts between the teeth to balance the bite and how chewing forces are distributed.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture to relieve jaw, neck and head tension linked to bruxism and tension headaches.
Dry Needling
Physiotherapy with fine needles that releases the muscle trigger points behind tension headaches, neck pain and bruxism.
NESA® Neuromodulation
Non-invasive neuromodulation with very low-intensity microcurrents for chronic bruxism, tension headaches and neck pain.

Real experiences from patients who have experienced the power of neuromodulation.
«Anxiety was really affecting my digestive system. I had a knot in my stomach that, fortunately, gradually dissolved with the neuromodulation sessions. NESA® has changed my life.»
«Since I started with NESA®, I noticed I could mentally disconnect from work responsibilities and decisions. Before, I was constantly on alert, which caused me a lot of stress and stomach pain. Now I'm more able to separate myself from those thoughts, which gives me a total benefit.»
«Before discovering NESA®, one of the children could go 20 days without proper bowel movement. Since we started neuromodulation treatment, he goes to the bathroom every 2 or 3 days. The change has been remarkable. Now he is much less irritated, doesn't bite or hit himself, and we can work with him daily.»
«The tools that NESA® is giving us physiotherapy professionals are key, it has a very big impact.»
«With NESA® we have managed to help many children go to the bathroom, sleep well and wake up relaxed.»

Everything you need to know about bruxism and TMJ
Bruxism is a disorder that affects approximately 20% of the adult population. Understanding its causes and treatment options is essential for proper management.
Types of bruxism: There are two types: nocturnal bruxism, which occurs during sleep and is the most common, and daytime bruxism, associated with stressful situations, anxiety or intense concentration.
Main causes: Stress and anxiety are the main factors, followed by sleep disorders (apnea, snoring), genetic predisposition, certain medications such as antidepressants, and bite or dental alignment problems.
Professional diagnosis: Diagnosis includes a complete clinical examination, evaluation of dental wear, analysis of masticatory muscles, and in some cases, sleep studies to determine the severity of the disorder.
Why a night guard alone is not enough: Night guards protect teeth but don't address the neurological cause of bruxism. It's like putting on a mouth guard without turning off the stress switch. Our method acts on all three levels of the problem.
Preventing complications: Untreated bruxism can cause dental fractures, chronic TMJ disorders, permanent tension headaches and progressive deterioration of quality of life. An early and comprehensive approach prevents these consequences.
At ENIQ, our comprehensive approach to bruxism combines immediate dental protection with neuromodulation technology and precision medicine. We design a personalized plan based on the severity and characteristics of each case.

We design a tailored protocol that can combine individually made night guards, relaxing microinjections for the masseter, occlusal adjustment, intra-articular injection when there is joint pain and, for the associated neck tension, diathermy, dry needling, acupuncture and NESA® neuromodulation. The exact combination is decided after the initial assessment.
Bruxism is the involuntary habit of clenching or grinding teeth, especially during sleep. Symptoms include jaw pain upon waking, morning headaches, visible dental wear, dental sensitivity, joint clicking and neck and shoulder pain. If your partner tells you that you grind at night, it's a clear sign.
The protocol is designed to deliver visible results in a short period of time. Most patients experience dramatic improvements in just 4 sessions, especially in pain reduction, muscle tension and jaw function. 85% of our patients recover normal mobility and their smile in this time.
Our approach is a comprehensive 360° treatment that acts on three levels: neuromuscular, joint and nervous system. In many cases, night guards only treat the "hardware" (teeth and joint) but don't reach the root of the problem. Our method can complement or reduce dependence on the guard by getting the brain to stop sending the clenching signal.
No. In fact, the experience is usually very comforting and pleasant. NESA® technology uses completely imperceptible microcurrents to reset the nervous system. The NOVAFON Power 2 device provides deep sonic vibration that relaxes the joint completely painlessly.
The main causes include stress and anxiety, sleep disorders such as apnea, genetic predisposition, certain medications (especially antidepressants), stimulant substances such as caffeine or alcohol, and bite or dental malocclusion problems. In most cases, there is a neurological component of nervous system hyperactivation.
