Temporomandibular disorders (TMDS) is a condition that cause pain and dysfunction in the jaw joint and muscles that control jaw movement.
It is usually a chronic condition and is caused by improper occlusion ( improper closure of jaws and teeth while chewing).
Signs and symptoms of TMJ disorders may include:
- Pain in the chewing muscles and/or jaw joint (most common symptom).
- Pain that spreads to the face or neck.
- Jaw stiffness.
- Limited movement or locking of the jaw.
- Painful clicking of jaw joint when opening or closing the mouth.
- Ringing in the ears.
It can be easily confused for many other medical conditions and hence proper diagnosis is the key.
