Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TMD) Treatment

TMD describes a variety of conditions affecting the temporomandibular joint - TMJ (the point where the jaw opens and closes) and nerves related to chronic facial pain. These problems are now more easily diagnosed and treated than in the past. Tension headaches and/or pain in the muscles of your face can be traced back to stress on your teeth due to clenching and/or grinding of your teeth. Women are twice as likely to be affected than men.
