The jaw is one of the most complex joint structures in your body. One common issues we address is TMJ (temporomandibular joint) syndrome. The TMJ connects your mandible (jaw bone) to your skull enabling you to talk, eat etc. Some of the problems arise when your jaw joints become misaligned causing some of the muscles to weaken while others tighten which in turn worsen the misalignments and so on. This not only causes jaw pain, clicking and teeth grinding but also referred pain like headaches. At Back Up, we treat TMJ either solely or as part of broader treatment program with your orthodontist.
