Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders are most commonly recognized by the presence of pain and tenderness inside an individual’s jawbone, as well as within the muscles that are used in controlling the jaw’s movement. A TMJ disorder can be caused genetics, arthritis, excessive teeth grinding or clenching and oral injury. In many cases, the pain that is associated with a TMJ disorder is temporary, and it will often go away without surgical treatment.
