  • The TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) is the joint that connects the lower jaw to the skull. It is found just in front of your ear.
  • The joint has a small cushioning disc between the two bones. This disc allows sideways and forward movement and when damaged or displaced it can be an important factor in the pain process.
  • Pain and functional issues linked to the TMJ and its associated muscles are referred to as TMD (Temporomandibular disorders).
  • If the muscles spasm, you can be left with your jaw locked in an open or closed position. This can be particularly disconcerting and painful.
  • If you suspect TMD related pain, please contact us immediately. The more you wait, the more difficult it can be to relieve the pain or relax a lock.
