Jaw Joint Disorder(TMD)

What is TMJ?
A temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a hinge that connects your jaw to the temporal bones of your skull, which are situated in front of our ears. It allows us to open our mouth, move the jaw side to side and to chew. Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are problems with the jaw, joints and muscles that control the TMJ. Common problems would be pain at the joint during function, opening or closing, clicking, locked jaw or jaw dropping. It’s common for people of age between 20-40. Faster recovery and fewer chances of recurring if treated early.

What Causes TMD?
• A heavy blow, whiplash, accidental knock on the joint
• Bruxism or grinding of teeth
• Deformed condylar disc (a soft cushion or disc between the ball and socket of the joint)
• Infections in the joint
• Stress that tightens facial and jaw muscles and make one clenches their teeth
