TMJ, or Temporomandibular Joint Disorder, is a condition affecting the jaw joint and muscles. Diagnosis typically involves a dental examination, discussing symptoms, and may include imaging tests like X-rays or MRIs to assess the jaw's condition.
Common symptoms include jaw pain or tenderness, difficulty chewing, aching facial pain, locking of the jaw joint, and noises like clicking or popping when opening or closing the mouth.
