TMJ and Orofacial Pain
TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) disorders and orofacial pain are significant issues in oral health that affect both the function and comfort of the jaw and surrounding structures. The TMJ connects the lower jaw to the skull, allowing essential movements like speaking and eating. When the joint becomes injured or misaligned, it can cause pain, clicking sounds, or limited jaw mobility. Orofacial pain, which includes discomfort in the mouth, jaw, and face, can result from conditions such as teeth grinding, joint inflammation, or nerve irritation. Treating these conditions often requires a comprehensive approach, including dental evaluations, medications, bite adjustments, and stress management techniques. Early intervention by a dentist is crucial to alleviate symptoms and restore normal function.
