Get rid of the problems associated with TMJ Disorder, for good. If you are one of over 40 million people who suffer from TMJ, you know the symptoms can be irritating at best and possibly excruciating. There are numerous signs and symptoms of TMJ including: a popping or clicking jaw with slight uneasiness to complete jaw dysfunction and severe pain. Many feel these symptoms to be temporary and go away on their own. However, for many it’s a frustrating journey of headaches, neck and back pain, dizziness, insomnia, and pain behind the eyes. There are many factors that can lead to TMJ, including clenching or grinding the teeth, arthritis, trauma, etc. Although there are currently no scientifically standardized tests to diagnose TMJ disorders, a thorough examination including range of motion test, listening to sounds in the joints, examining the teeth and jaw, as well as the muscles of the face and head allows us to diagnose TMJ.
