What is TMJ Disorder (TMD)?

The temporomandibular joint is your jaw’s powerhouse. It connects your jawbone to your skull and seamlessly coordinates each bite, word, and yawn to keep your daily life moving smoothly. TMJ disorder negatively affects this joint. When the TMJ becomes inflamed or misaligned, it can cause a range of symptoms, including:

  • Pain – When the jaw joint or surrounding muscles regularly experience severe discomfort or pain.
  • Headaches – Frequent tension or migraine-like headaches.
  • Clicking or Popping – Sounds or sensations when opening or closing your mouth.
  • Restricted Movement – Difficulty opening your mouth fully or experiencing jaw stiffness.
  • Ear Pain – Sensitivity or pain in the ears, often mistaken for ear infections.
