Jaw pain, clicking or difficulty opening your mouth? It could be your TMJ.
What is the TMJ?
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects your jawbone to your skull and helps you speak, chew and open your mouth.
Common Symptoms of TMJ Disorders
- Jaw pain or tenderness
- Clicking or popping sounds
- Difficulty or pain while opening the mouth
- Jaw locking or limited mouth opening
- Headaches or facial pain
- Pain while chewing
- Ear discomfort without an obvious ear problem
When Should You See a TMJ Specialist?
Occasional clicking without pain may not always require treatment. However, persistent pain, restricted mouth opening, recurrent locking or difficulty chewing should be evaluated by a specialist.
