TMJ stands for temporal-mandibular joint. Temporal, as in temple area of skull; mandibular as in mandible, or lower jaw; joint as in where the head and jaw connect. People experience problems in this joint from misalignment of the teeth, trauma, or excessive muscle tension. Five muscles meet in this area along with two bones with supporting cartilage. Problems in this area can result in pain, discomfort and even difficulties biting or speaking.
Symptoms of TMJ include:
There are many options for treatment including replacing missing teeth, moving teeth, or bite adjustments. Mouthguards and nightguards aid in prevention of clenching and grinding which affects the muscles. Every person is different and therefore with TMJ issues we sometimes have to do trial and error to see what works best to alleviate symptoms. In severe cases if relief can be obtained from adjustments or a guard surgery may be required to repair a badly damaged joint.
