How easy is it to get lasting relief?

TMJ refers to the temporomandibular joint, which is the essential connection between the lower jaw and the rest of the head. TMJ disorder can result from stress, injury, or misalignment in this joint. Factors such as stress, bruxism (teeth grinding and clenching), TMJ arthritis, and trauma to the head, neck, or jaw can contribute to the disorder. If you suspect you have a TMJ disorder, schedule an appointment with us today.
