TMJ & Facial Pain in Spring Hill, TN
TMJ Disorders & Facial Pain in Spring Hill, Tennessee
The temporomandibular joint, or TMJ, connects the lower jaw to the temporal bone at the side of the head. It acts similarly to a sliding hinge, and there is one joint on either side of your jaw. If there is any type of problem with this joint, a person may experience significant pain and discomfort. It is common for a person with a TMJ disorder to experience a clicking or popping sound when they open or close their mouth. Additionally, it is common for people to suffer from headaches or migraines, congestion, and even facial pain. Few realize that TMJ disorders and these symptoms are closely associated.
