What is Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMJ)?
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects your lower jaw (mandible) to the skull and allows smooth movements required for speaking, chewing, and yawning. TMJ Disorder (TMD) occurs when this joint or the surrounding muscles become inflamed, injured, or dysfunctional, leading to pain and restricted movement.
TMJ disorders can result from teeth grinding (bruxism), jaw injury, arthritis, stress, bite misalignment, or excessive strain on the jaw muscles.
