Temporomandibular Jaw Disorder (TMJ) can be a painful disorder causing strain on the jaw muscles. It can affect chewing, swallowing, and even speech. Often the actual cause of the disorder is unknown.
For some people, the disorder may present itself when there is excessive clenching or grinding of the teeth (bruxism). Often, patients are unaware they have these habits. Other causes can be trauma to the jaw or arthritis of the jaw.
TMJ is a common disorder, with approximately 1 out of 3 adults experiencing it at some point in their lifetime.
