Your temporomandibular joint, (TMJ), can sometimes be the source of jaw pain. The temporomandibular joint, which is felt just where your jaw meets your skull, can be put under a lot of strain by things like frequent teeth grinding or facial injuries. Temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) symptoms include headaches, popping or clicking sounds in the jaw, and trouble opening your mouth. Dentists can treat these problems in a variety of ways, including the use of painkillers, mouthguards, or even specific exercises. Call our office today to receive treatment for your TMD.
