Temporo-Mandibular Joint (TMJ) is at the point where jaw bone (mandibular) connects to the skull (temporal bone). It functions as a hinge for your mouth allowing you to chew and speak.Some people may experience chronic pain and discomfort in the jaw joint and surrounding tissue also known as Temporo-Mandibular Disorder (TMD). It can result in headaches, tension, painful clicking, grinding sounds, or yawning.
