Every time a person chews, smiles, yawns or
talks, the temporomandibular joint, or TMJ, is at work. The TMJ connects the lower jaw to
the skull and allows the lower jaw to move and function. When it is not functioning
properly, a variety of symptoms may surface, such as headaches, ringing in the ears,
clicking or grating sounds in the joint, or pain when opening or closing the mouth. For
more information on how your oral and maxillofacial surgeon diagnoses and treats these
problems through non-surgical and surgical means, please click on the words "TMJ Disorders." |
