What is TMJ dysfunction?

TMJ stands for Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction. A musculoskeletal condition that affects the jaw. Often caused by constant strain, stress, and malocclusion of the jaw joints, leading to pain and difficulty opening their mouth. TMJ dysfunction can arise from structural abnormalities within the joint, teeth grinding (bruxism), and/or injury affecting the head or neck.

Pain is reported as the most common symptom, experienced during eating, yawning, speaking, and even at rest.
