TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) disorders, collectively referred to as TMD, involve complications related to the jaw joint and the muscles responsible for jaw movement. These conditions can cause significant discomfort and impact your ability to speak, eat, and even sleep. Understanding TMJ/TMD is the first step toward finding relief and restoring functionality.
TMD can arise from various factors, often making it a complex condition to diagnose. Some common causes include:
Recognizing the symptoms of TMD is crucial for early intervention. Common symptoms include:
Research indicates a potential link between TMD and sleep apnea, a condition characterized by pauses in breathing during sleep. TMD may exacerbate sleep apnea symptoms by affecting jaw alignment and breathing pathways. Understanding this connection is essential in providing a holistic treatment approach; let us know if you are experiencing sleep apnea!
