What Is TMJ Disorder?

TMJ stands for temporomandibular joint the joint that connects your jaw to your skull. When this joint is strained or misaligned, it can lead to TMJ disorder (TMD).

Common causes include:

  • Teeth grinding (bruxism)
  • Stress related jaw clenching
  • Misaligned bite
  • Jaw injury or inflammation
  • Uneven tooth wear or spacing

When the bite is off, the entire jaw system can become strained.
