TMJD can cause a range of symptoms, including jaw pain, difficulty in opening and closing the mouth, clicking or popping sounds in the jaw joint, and headaches. It can be caused by various factors such as jaw injury, arthritis, teeth grinding, or stress. Treatment options for TMJD include pain management, physical therapy, dental splints, and in severe cases, surgery. If you suspect you have TMJD, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management.
