TMJ DISORDERS: ONE-MINUTE SCREENING

TMJ-related pain and dysfunction often goes undiagnosed because the signs and symptoms mimic dozens of other disorders. If you suffer from head, neck or facial pain, here are some questions your general dentist or primary care physician can use to quickly assess your potential for a TMJ disorder.

Though not all patients presenting signs or symptoms of a TMJ disorder should necessarily proceed with further diagnosis and treatment, most will benefit from careful work up and, if indicated, proper management. This is especially true if no other specific medical diagnosis can be made and/or you are not getting the results from your current treatment that you and your doctor expected.
