About TMJ Pain

TMJ pain can cause discomfort in the jaw, face, and neck, often leading to headaches and difficulty chewing. It’s caused by issues with the temporomandibular joint, which connects your jaw to your skull. Proper treatment can relieve symptoms and restore comfort.

What Is TMJ?

Temporomandibular joint and muscle disorders (TMJDs) refer to a complex set of conditions that can cause pain in the area of the jaw joint and associated muscles and/or problems using the jaw. Both or just one of the TM joints may be affected. TMDs can affect a person’s ability to speak, eat, chew swallow, make facial expressions and even breathe. When untreated, it can cause other parts of the face, head, and neck to hurt, even though the tissues are intact and do not have a problem in and of themselves.

“TMJ” stands for TemporoMandibular Joint, or the jaw joint. There are two TMJs, one in the front of each ear, connecting the lower jaw bone (the mandible) to the skull. The joints allow movement up and down, side to side, and forward and back-all the mobility necessary for biting, chewing and swallowing food, for speaking and making facial expressions.

TMJ disorder is frequently underdiagnosed due to its complex symptoms, which often mimic other conditions like headaches, earaches, or neck pain.
