Temporomandibular joint (TMJ)

The temporomandibular joints are on each side of your face and allow the opening and closing of your mouth. As the proper functioning of the joint depends on the positioning of the teeth as well as many muscles, any temporomandibular disorder (TMD) can cause sensitivity and even pain to the jaw.

Consult with your dentist if these signs of TMD manifest:

  • Difficulty opening or closing your mouth
  • Sounds during articulation
  • Stiffness in your face, neck or shoulder muscles
  • Headaches
