What is TMJ disorder and what causes it?

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects the jaw to the skull and can be affected by:

  • Bruxism (clenching teeth due to stress).
  • Misalignment of the jaw or cervical vertebrae.
  • Muscle tension in the neck and head.
  • Malocclusion (when the bite doesn’t fit properly).

Common Symptoms:

  • Jaw pain when chewing or yawning.
  • Clicking or locking in the joint.
  • Associated headaches or neck pain.
  • A feeling of pressure in the ears.

What happens if you don’t treat it?

  • It can cause wear on the teeth and the TMJ disc.
  • It can lead to chronic neck and head pain.
  • It can affect jaw mobility.
