TMJ Symptoms and Treatment
Serving the Sarasota, Tampa and Tampa Bay areas
TMJ is a unique disorder because it is the symptoms of TMJ that cause people pain and other problems. Also, TMJ symptoms do not always affect the jaw, mouth, or teeth; they can cause pain all over the body, making some people suffer for years before determining what the true problem is.
Some TMJ symptoms may not seem like a big deal, but they can identify a problem that can cause more serious symptoms in the future. Some of the most common symptoms people suffer from include:
- Headaches
- Migraines
- Grinding Teeth
- Clenching Teeth
- Ringing in the Ears
- Tooth Pain in the Morning
- Neck Pain
- Upper Back
- Shoulder Pain
- Arm Pain
- Clicking/Popping Jaw Joint
- Locking Jaw
- Worn Teeth
- Chipped Teeth
- Loose Teeth
If you are suffering from any of these symptoms, it may be a result of a misaligned temporomandibular joint and TMJ. It is important that you treat your TMJ symptoms early in order to prevent serious future problems that may require expensive, invasive treatment.
