Could Your Bite Be Causing Your Pain? Understanding TMJ Dysfunction

July 15, 2024by user

Do you suffer from chronic headaches, jaw pain, or difficulty chewing? You might not have the diagnosis you need. While perfect bites are rare, misaligned teeth and jaw problems can have a significant impact on your overall well-being.

The Body as a System:

Your teeth are much more than just chompers. They’re part of a complex system that includes muscles and joints. Anomalies in your bite (misalignment) can affect your head, neck, and even other parts of your body.

Symptoms of TMJ Dysfunction:

  • Difficulty opening and closing your mouth
  • Pain in the cheeks, jaw, or ear
  • Ringing in the ears
  • Frequent headaches
  • Discomfort in the shoulders and neck
  • Clicking sounds in the jaw joint
  • Changes in how your teeth fit together
  • Seeking Expert Help
