Early treatment prevents long term joint damage and chronic headaches.

What Is TMJ / TMD?

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is the hinge connecting your jaw to your skull.
TMD occurs when this joint or the surrounding muscles become strained or inflamed.

Because the joint moves whenever you talk, chew or yawn, small problems can quickly become daily discomfort.

Signs You May Have a TMJ Disorder

You may benefit from an assessment if you notice:

1. Jaw pain or tightness

2. Clicking or popping sounds

3. Morning headaches

4. Teeth grinding or clenching

5. Ear pressure without infection

6. Locked jaw

7. Facial muscle fatigue

8. Neck and shoulder tension

Many headaches actually begin in the jaw muscles.
