What Is TMJ?
TMD (temporomandibular disorders), often referred to as TMJ, is characterized by significant pain in the jaw and limitation in jaw joint movement. TMJ can impact basic functions like speech, swallowing, chewing and in some cases, even breathing.
The symptoms commonly associated with TMJ include recurrent facial pain and sensitivity, swelling, constant teeth grinding, and jaw joint locking causing limited range of motion in the jaw.
TMJ symptoms vary, but in many cases include:
- Headaches

- Stiffness in the jaw
- Earaches
- Pain while yawning
