What is TMJ and Why Does It Occur?

TMJ, or temporomandibular joint disorder, is a condition that affects the joint connecting your jawbone to your skull. Imagine this joint as a hinge, letting you open and close your mouth. When this hinge experiences problems, it results in TMJ.

Causes can vary, but common triggers include:

  • Jaw Injury: A blow or trauma can misalign the joint.
  • Erosion of the Disc: The soft cushion between the ball and socket can erode or move out of its optimal alignment.
  • Arthritis: Degenerative joint disorders can affect the jaw just like other parts of the body.
  • Clenching and Grinding: Regular teeth grinding can place pressure on the TMJ, causing discomfort.

Symptoms of TMJ include:

  • Pain or tenderness in the jaw
  • Aching pain around the ear
  • Difficulty or discomfort while chewing
  • Facial pain
  • Locking of the joint, making it hard to open or close the mouth

TMJ Injections: The Relief Mechanism

The TMJ injections are actually placed directly into the muscles that are responsible for opening and closing the jaw. These muscle are often the reason for the pain, as they are over-worked and hyperactive. Many patients suffering from this will experience facial pain and chronic headaches. The procedure results in a more relaxed muscular system, allowing opportunity for the patient to find relief from the tension.

Green Leaf Dentistry review 1
From the moment I walked in the door everyone in the office was very welcoming! I followed Dr. Ferraro from another office, and she’s more than worth the extra travel! She’s super thorough, personable, and very knowledgeable. I’ve had my fair share of unfavorable experiences with dentists, but she eases any anxiety about my visits. I highly recommend this office!

I simply can’t say how impressed I am and thankful with Dr. Ferrero and her staff. Her staff were very welcoming very kind.For the pass couple of years, I’ve had an issue with my wisdom tooth. I needed to get it extracted, but every dentist that I visit always gave me the same excuse we can’t remove it it’s right on the nerve. I became hopeless. dealing with the pain, until I went to Dr. Ferraro dental practice.
