TMD Management
TMD refers to conditions affecting the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which connects the lower jaw to the skull and allows smooth jaw movement. Disorders of this joint can lead to: • Pain • Restricted movement • Joint sounds • Muscle dysfunction
Patients with TMJ disorder may experience: • Jaw pain or tenderness • Clicking or popping sounds • Difficulty opening or closing the mouth • Jaw locking • Headaches and migraines • Ear pain or tinnitus • Facial muscle fatigue • Pain while chewing
Diagnosis of TMD includes: • Clinical examination • Occlusal (bite) analysis • Muscle and joint palpation • Digital imaging (X-rays, CBCT) • Functional jaw movement assessment
