Tempero-mandibular joint syndrome, also known as TMJ syndrome, brings about pain and inflammation in the tempero-mandibular joint. The tempero-mandibular joint is the joint in the human body that attaches the mandible, more commonly known as the jawbone, to the skull. TMJ inflammation can be both severe and constant, and it is often excruciatingly painful and debilitating. Several million people in the United States suffer from tempero-mandibular joint syndrome at the present time.

Stress on the tempero-mandibular joint is the most common cause of TMJ syndrome. A significant overbite, continuously grinding your teeth or clenching your jaw, can cause stress on the joint and result in TMJ syndrome. Very commonly, stress to the tempero-mandibular joint can result from an injury to the face, such as your face being struck by a foreign object. Massachusetts car accidents, which can cause a blow to the face, frequently result in Massachusetts facial injuries, including TMJ syndrome. Because the jaw bone gets smaller in size near the ear, the joint is also more vulnerable to fractures in Massachusetts accidents.

TMJ syndrome has multiple symptoms. Someone suffering from this ailment may or may not experience hearing loss, difficulty eating, earaches, migraine headaches, persistent pain and discomfort, pain in the neck and shoulders, or difficulties in making facial expressions or opening and closing your mouth. TMJ pain is often described as pain that is quite similar to that of an infected tooth. Usually the pain on one side of the head is more intense than the pain on the other side. Aside from being physically debilitating, the symptoms of TMJ syndrome can sometimes cause people to become socially withdrawn, leading to adverse emotional effects and social issues.

TMJ syndrome can be treated with a variety of Massachusetts procedures and medical procedures. Some mild cases of TMJ can be more or less controlled with a mild analgesic, such as ibuprofen. In other cases, mouth guards can be worn while sleeping at night to prevent the grinding of the joints. Anti-inflammatory steroids also can be injected into the joint to provide someone suffering from TMJ syndrome with some much-needed temporary relief. In more severe cases of TMJ syndrome, however, oral surgery is often required in order to get the teeth to align properly along the jaw line. The surgery for TMJ syndrome typically entails either removing a section of the bone in the jaw or lengthening the mandible by inserting an implant. In some Massachusetts TMJ syndrome patients, where stress is the chief contributing cause of their TMJ syndrome, psychological care and treatment may be required as well.
