What is TMJ?
TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint Disorder) is a common but serious condition in which the joint that connects the upper and lower jaws becomes misaligned, causing problems ranging from tooth grinding and jaw problems to migraine headaches.
The condition may be caused by a number of different things. In some cases, it’s the result of injury or dental disease, producing a wide range of symptoms, from mild to serious, including
- Clicking, grinding and popping of the jaw
- Difficulty moving the jaw, including opening and closing the mouth
- Migraines, headaches, and neck aches
- Locking or soreness or other pain around the face and jaw
