Temporomandibular joint disorder: explained
Temporomandibular joint disorder, commonly known as TMJ, is a condition that affects the joints connecting your jawbone to your skull. These joints, situated in front of each ear, enable you to perform essential tasks like chewing, speaking, and yawning. When they malfunction, it can lead to discomfort and difficulty in daily activities. Leading consultant oral and maxillofacial surgeon Professor Piet Haers explores the condition, explaining its causes, diagnosis and treatment options.
