Jaw Pain
What is Jaw Pain?
Jaw pain can significantly impact your daily life, making it difficult to eat, speak, or even yawn comfortably. It can also disrupt your sleep and lower your overall quality of life, affecting both your physical and emotional well-being. Common causes of jaw pain include temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, teeth grinding (bruxism), injury, or dental conditions such as cavities or gum disease. Left untreated, jaw pain can lead to complications such as persistent headaches, facial tension, and even joint damage.
