TMJ disorder refers to a condition that affects the temporomandibular joint, which connects your jaw to the skull. This joint is responsible for enabling smooth movements of the jaw, such as opening and closing your mouth. When the TMJ becomes damaged or misaligned, it can result in pain, discomfort, and difficulty moving the jaw. TMJ disorders are often caused by factors such as jaw injury, teeth grinding, poor posture, or stress.
