TMJ can impact your daily life when left untreated. The pain and discomfort it causes can lead to chronic headaches and widespread pain in the face, jaw, and even ears. Many patients who suffer from TMJ can remain undiagnosed for long periods of time because they do not fully understand the connection between the pain they experience and the misalignment of their jaw. TMJ can have many different causes. Trauma to the head, neck, or jaw area can lead to TMJ disorder. This includes whiplash, tooth loss, arthritis, clenching or grinding of the teeth, dislocation of the jaw, and even general stress or excessive gum chewing. The primary signs of TMJ disorder is clicking or popping of the mandibular joint, as well as stiffness in the neck, headaches and ear ringing and or pain, pain behind the eyes, and discomfort in the mouth and jaw.
