What Is TMJ?

TMJ Treatment for Miami, FL Clients

The temporomandibular joints (TMJs) are the hinge-like joints and muscles we use to open and close our mouths to speak and eat. These joints and ligaments also move your jaw forward and back, and side to side, working together when you chew, swallow, and speak.

TMJ disorder, also called TMJ, can be a very painful situation for patients. When patients experience injuries or certain diseases, these joints can become swollen, inflamed, or sore. They can also deteriorate over time.

What Causes TMJ Pain?

The exact cause of TMJ disorder can be challenging to identify. Your pain may be due to:

Genetics

Jaw Injury

Arthritis

Connective tissue diseases

Some people who have jaw pain clench their jaws or grind their teeth (bruxism). However, this is not always the case, and many people who habitually clench or grind their teeth never develop TMJ pain.

Signs You Need Emergency Jaw Surgery

These issues can spiral out of control and lead to ear infections and pain medication dependence, but they're most often accused of leaving us feeling crummy overall. Some signs that you may need emergency jaw surgery include:

Toothaches

Headaches

Dizziness

Earaches

Shoulder or neck pain

Tinnitus (ringing in the ear)

When Is TMJ Pain an Emergency?

If the pain is so bad you're in tears, it's probably an emergency. Know that the ER will not be able to cure your TMJ disorder, but they will be able to medicate you until you can schedule your appointment. With the risk of ear infections, dizziness and tooth problems, you need professional help soon!
