TMJ and Teeth Grinding
The temporomandibular joint, or TMJ, disorders relate to the jaw joints and the muscles connected to them. Bruxism, or teeth grinding, occupies a special place in the development of TMJ, affecting the joints and gradually wearing down the teeth that are inconsistent with one another. This bite irregularity is prevalent and can cause TMJ pain and continue the problem in joints. This is the natural cycle that patients with bruxism go through and may be relieved by a basic procedure in which the dentist adjusts the chewing surfaces.
