Temporomandibular Disorders Treatment Islington

Get relief from temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain with gentle, personalised care at Dental & Wellness London

Your Jaw Has a Joint — And It Can Become Inflamed, Just Like a Knee or Shoulder

Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) affects the joints that connect your jaw to your skull — known as the TMJs. When these joints become strained, inflamed, or misaligned, you can experience a variety of symptoms that affect your daily life.

Unlock Relief: Comprehensive Care for Your Jaw Discomfort

Is Your Jaw Trying to Tell You Something?

You might have TMD if you’re experiencing:

Jaw pain or tenderness (especially in the morning)

Clicking, popping, or grinding when opening or closing your mouth

Headaches or migraines

Pain around your ears, cheeks, or temples

Difficulty opening your mouth fully

Facial tension or pain when chewing

Locking of the jaw

Fact: Up to 1 in 10 adults in the UK may suffer from TMD — but many go undiagnosed

Stress, Teeth Grinding, Injuries — Or Sometimes, No Clear Reason at All

TMD is often caused by a combination of factors:

Teeth grinding or clenching (bruxism)

Jaw misalignment or bite issues

Arthritis

Stress and tension

Injuries or trauma to the jaw

Even poor posture (like leaning forward at your desk) can strain your jaw over time
