Your jaw joints are some of the most complex in the body. Known as the temporomandibular joints, or TMJs, they are responsible for connecting the jaw to the skull and are used countless times each day as you speak, laugh, yawn, eat, and make any other movements of the mouth. Dysfunction of the TMJs can lead to a variety of uncomfortable symptoms. Luckily, the team at Precision Dental Clinic in Dubai, UAE offers expert diagnosis and treatment for patients looking for jaw pain relief.
Many patients with TMJ disorders often go without a diagnosis for years because the symptoms associated with TMJ disorder aren’t always clearly distinguishable as problems with the jaw joints. Still, there are some warning symptoms that you can look out for. They are:
Finding the right TMJ solutions requires properly identifying the root cause of the disorder which can vary by individual. For example, some patients may suffer from pain due to habits such as biting nails or chewing on hard objects. For these individuals, lifestyle changes may eliminate the pain. For individuals who grind and clench their teeth, a custom oral appliance may be recommended to wear during sleep in order to reduce the strain on the jaw and find relief from TMJ pain and headaches.
Other treatment options that may improve the symptoms of TMJ include:
