TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT DISORDERS
Find relief from your jaw pain with a customized treatment plan from HollowBrook Dental specialists.
ARE YOU LIVING IN CONSTANT JAW PAIN?
A misaligned jaw can be the source of dozens of ailments, including migraines, back pain, and sleeplessness. The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is located on both sides of your head. These joints help you eat, talk, and yawn. When your TMJ malfunctions, it may be a sign that your muscles, bones, ligaments, or other tissues surrounding the joint are impacted, causing Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD).
What Causes TMD?
While the root source of Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) may be difficult to diagnosis, grinding or clenching your teeth, stress from tightening your facial muscles, or a head-related injury are often correlating factors.

TMD Symptoms
- A popping or clicking noise when opening or closing your mouth
- Locking jaw or limited movement
- Dizziness or earaches
- Toothaches, headaches, or neck aches
- Neck, shoulder, or facial pain when you move your jaw
- Sore Teeth
- A popping or clicking noise when opening or closing your mouth
- Eye pain
