Whether it is aching joints, jaw dysfunction, recurring migraines or facial tension, chronic pain can keep you from enjoying life. 

At TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre Indiana, we believe lasting relief comes from empowering your body to heal itself. Our regenerative medicine treatments harness your own biology to repair damaged tissues, reduce inflammation and restore comfort.

What Is Regenerative Medicine?

Regenerative medicine taps into your body’s healing mechanisms – platelets, growth factors and mild inflammatory responses – to stimulate tissue repair and strengthen ligaments and cartilage rather than just masking symptoms.

Our Regenerative Therapies

We offer platelet rich fibrin injections (PRF), platelet rich plasma injections (PRP), prolotherapy, gentle laser therapy and targeted nerve blocks. These therapies draw on your body’s own growth factors to reduce inflammation, calm nerves and promote tissue repair.

7 Signs Regenerative Medicine May Help You

  1. Persistent joint or muscle pain that does not improve with conventional care.
  2. Chronic TMJ pain, clicking, popping or jaw dysfunction.
  3. Recurring migraines or facial headaches.
  4. Limited mobility or stiffness due to joint instability.
  5. Little or no relief from medications, physical therapy or splints.
  6. A desire to avoid surgery and reduce reliance on pain medications.
  7. Neuropathic facial pain, cluster headaches or trigeminal neuralgia.

If one or more of these apply, regenerative therapy may offer a natural alternative that addresses the root of your pain.

Why Early Intervention Matters

Untreated pain and inflammation can lead to progressive tissue damage and diminished healing capacity. Beginning regenerative therapy early stimulates healing before structural damage becomes severe, often preventing surgery and reducing long term medication use.

Can Regenerative Medicine Solve Your Pain?

These therapies do not guarantee a cure, but many patients experience significant, lasting relief after one or a few sessions. Because they stimulate your own healing mechanisms, results often build over time. Ongoing monitoring and booster treatments can help maintain comfort and function.
