What is TMJ?


TMJ, or temporomandibular joint disorder, affects the joints and muscles that control jaw movement. It can result from a variety of factors such as injury, arthritis, or chronic stress.


Common Symptoms Include: 


  • Severe jaw pain
  • Clicking or popping sounds in the jaw
  • Intense headaches
  • Persistent ear pain
  • Difficulty chewing and speaking


These symptoms can disrupt your daily life, but you don’t have to live with them. Our chiropractic care can provide the quick, effective relief you need.

Causes and Types of TMJ Disorders


TMJ can arise from various causes, each contributing to the discomfort and dysfunction of the jaw in different ways. Understanding these causes can help in tailoring effective treatment plans. The common causes of TMJ include:


  • Physical trauma: Injuries to the jaw or head can damage the temporomandibular joint, leading to pain and limited movement.
  • Arthritis: Conditions like osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis can affect the joint, causing inflammation, pain, and degradation over time.
  • Dental issues: Misaligned teeth or bite problems can place excessive stress on the jaw joint, leading to TMJ symptoms.
  • Habitual behaviors: Repetitive behaviors such as teeth grinding (bruxism) or jaw clenching, often exacerbated by stress, can strain the jaw muscles and joints, resulting in TMJ disorders.


Types of TMJ Disorders


There are also different types of TMJ disorders, such as:


  • Myofascial pain (discomfort in the muscles controlling the jaw)
  • Internal derangement of the joint (a dislocated jaw or displaced disc)
  • Degenerative joint disease (like osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis)


Each type requires a tailored approach to ensure effective relief and recovery.
