More about Temporomandibular joints
The Temporomandibular joints are basically the most important feature of the entire physiology of the jaws. These link the skull and the lower jaws together and perform many functions – such as opening and closing the mouth. Because these jaws are finely tuned, it is very easy for problems like misalignment, degeneration and displacement of the parts of the mechanisms to arise. And when they do, they can get very painful and debilitating.
Basic symptoms such as headaches and clicking sounds heard near the ears caused by the misaligned joints can advance to even worse symptoms like migraine-like headaches, excessive and uncontrolled wear of the teeth, and chronic pain in the jaws and surrounding muscles
of the head and neck.
