What symptoms can present in TMJ disorders?
Temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD) encompass a range of conditions affecting the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), muscles of mastication, and associated structures.
Common symptoms include:
- Pain or tenderness in the jaw
- Aching pain around the ear
- Difficulty or discomfort while chewing
- Clicking or popping sounds in the jaw joint
- Jaw locking or limitation in jaw movement
- Headache
- Neck pain
Studies indicate that stress and bruxism (teeth grinding) are significant contributing factors, often exacerbating these symptoms . Accurate diagnosis typically involves a combination of clinical examination, patient history, and imaging techniques such as MRI or CT scans to assess the joint and surrounding tissues.
