TMJ SYMPTOMS IN STUART FL
Your temporomandibular joint (TMJ) attaches your lower jaw to the rest of your skull. Unlike other joints in your body, this joint allows for a broad range of motion in order to facilitate actions such as chewing, swallowing, and speaking.
Some of the most versatile muscles in the body are located in the temporomandibular joint, along with large nerve clusters. When there is even slight strain, the resulting symptoms can negatively impact your comfort, mobility, and ability to perform crucial tasks.
COMMON TMJ SYMPTOMS INCLUDE
- Migraines and headaches
- Popping and clicking in the jaw
- Teeth grinding and lockjaw
- Facial pain and jaw pain
- Tinnitus, or ear pain and ringing

- Head, neck, and shoulder pain
If these symptoms are part of your daily life, you may qualify for temporomandibular joint treatments.
