Arcadi V, Birth Induced TMJ Dysfunction: The Most Common Cause of Breastfeeding Difficulties Proceedings Of The National Conference On Chiropractic. 1993 Oct: 18-22.

In a clinical setting, 1,000 newborns were observed and treated (ages hour to 21 days), for failure and/or difficulty with breast-feeding. In 800 or 80%, birth induced Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction was found to be the cause. In all cases, the babies were treated with chiropractic cranial and spinal adjustments, with excellent results in 99% of the cases. This paper discusses the basic clinical findings, related newborn discomforts, and associated symptomatology involving other symptoms.
