Understanding TMJ and Bruxism

TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) Disorders affect the jaw joint and surrounding muscles, causing pain, clicking, popping, and difficulty chewing.

Bruxism is the involuntary clenching or grinding of teeth, often during sleep. It can lead to jaw pain, headaches, tooth wear, and even sleep disruption.
