TMJ pathology refers to disorders affecting the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which connects the jaw to the skull. These conditions can cause pain, difficulty in chewing, jaw stiffness, clicking sounds, and even locking of the jaw. TMJ disorders may result from trauma, arthritis, teeth grinding (bruxism), or misalignment of the jaw. Diagnosis involves clinical evaluation, imaging techniques like X-rays, MRI, or CT scans. Treatment options include medications, physical therapy, bite correction, and in severe cases, surgical intervention. Managing TMJ pathology is essential for restoring normal jaw function, reducing discomfort, and improving overall quality of life through personalized, multidisciplinary care approaches.
