TMJ Dysfunction and Its Causes
Are you suffering from moderate to severe pain in your temple, ear, neck or shoulder? Does your jaw pop or click when you chew? If so, you could be suffering from TMJ dysfunction.
There’s so single cause for TMJ dysfunction—it’s different for every patient. In some cases, it may be a result of improper bite or stress. In others, your pain could be related to a recent injury. Regardless of the cause, you don’t have to live with your pain—it can be treated. And one way Dr. Johnson and the team at our Houston office is helping patients is with an orthotic appliance known as a splint.
