Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction is a condition affecting the jaw joint and surrounding muscles, leading to pain and restricted movement. Common symptoms include jaw pain, headaches, earaches, and difficulty chewing. The causes of TMJ dysfunction vary, ranging from trauma and arthritis to chronic stress and teeth grinding.
Chiropractic care offers a non-invasive solution to address TMJ dysfunction by focusing on the alignment of the spine and jaw. Cervical misalignments can affect the jaw and jaw misalignments can affect the neck, causing pain and dysfunction in both areas. Through gentle adjustments and targeted therapies, chiropractors work to realign the cervical spine and jaw, alleviating pain and restoring proper function. This holistic approach not only addresses the immediate symptoms but also promotes long-term health and stability of the jaw and neck.
Here are some common symptoms of TMJ dysfunction:
Clicking When Chewing
Jaw Tension and Pain
Asymmetry when Opening/Closing
Headaches
Ringing in Ears
These are some variables that can cause TMJ dysfunction ( pain , clicking , tightness and locking):
✨Cranial distortion patterns from birth. This could also cause breastfeeding challenges.

✨Injury to the face, head and neck
