What is TMJ-Related Jaw Pain?

Jaw pain often stems from dysfunction in the temporomandibular joint, which connects the jawbone to the skull. This condition, commonly referred to as TMJ disorder, can be caused by various factors such as teeth grinding, stress, trauma, or misalignment of the jaw. When the TMJ is not functioning properly, it can lead to pain and discomfort that affects daily activities like eating, speaking, and even sleeping.

Symptoms of TMJ-Related Jaw Pain

Common symptoms of jaw pain related to TMJ include:

• Persistent or intermittent pain in the jaw, face, or ear area.
• Clicking, popping, or grinding noises when opening or closing the mouth.
• Difficulty chewing or biting down.
• Limited range of motion or a “locked” jaw.
• Headaches, neck pain, or shoulder discomfort linked to TMJ dysfunction.

These symptoms can vary in severity and may worsen without proper treatment.
