Temporomandibular joint (TMJ)

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction or Jaw related problems can arise because of motor vehicle accident, trauma due to dental work, direct injury to face, chronic teeth clenching and grinding at night, or tension in the neck and face from stress and poor posture.

TMJ disfunction can cause pain in the jaw, reduced mouth opening, and “crackling” or “popping” noises when moving the jaw. Other possible symptoms include earache, ear ringing, headache, dizziness, and difficulty swallowing.
Our certified Physiotherapist can evaluate, treat, and help you manage TMJ disorder related pains, and improve mouth function.
