TMJD Symptoms & Prevention

Patients who suffer from TMJD can slow, stop or reverse the damage of the disorder with treatment. Once the bite is corrected, tense jaw muscles relax and symptoms subside.

Why is TMJD Difficult to Diagnose?

For many people, the symptoms of temporomandibular joint disorder, or TMJD, feel just like the symptoms of other common medical conditions, such as ear and sinus infections, facial nerve pain, tooth and gum conditions, vertigo, back and neck problems, headaches, and migraines.

As a result, many people living with TMJD spend years suffering in pain and visiting ENT specialists, dentists, chiropractors and orthopedists looking for – but never finding – a long-term solution for their pain or uncomfortable symptoms because treatments never target the root cause of their discomfort.
