“TMJ” can develop if a person’s jaw is not properly aligned. Bite imbalance, excessive wear, pain and other symptoms can develop. To determine the best course of treatment, an accurate diagnosis is very important. In some cases, a simple adjustment to your bite positioning, or a mouthpiece that corrects the way your jaw joint closes can alleviate many of the problems associated with “TMJ”.
