TMJ
TMJ disorders affect the jaw joint and the surrounding muscles. The temporomandibular joint, which is found on both sides of the head is vital in all head and neck movements. This joint can become displaced or swollen due to many different reasons. In most cases, TMJ disorders are caused by teeth grinding, clenching the jaw, or even aggressive chewing. Stress will also increase the discomfort and exacerbate the symptoms of TMJ discomfort.
TMJ can cause jaw pain as well as many other symptoms, making it difficult to diagnose. The most common TMJ symptoms are jaw pain, popping or clicking in the jaw when chewing, limited ability to open or close the jaw, swelling in the face, neck or shoulder pain, headaches, toothaches, and earaches with or without ringing in the ears. Some patients believe they have a headache disorder, when in fact, it is the TMJ disorder that will cause frequent, and sometimes severe, headaches and facial pain.
Relief from TMJ pain can greatly increase quality of life. Many patients are often frustrated by inefficient treatments and are looking for something that will make a lasting impact, and Botox can be the answer.
