Common Signs of TMJ Disorder
Temporomandibular joint disorder affecting the jaw, ear and temple — often overlapping with headache and facial pain — evaluated as joint, muscle and nerve together.
- Jaw pain, clicking or popping when opening or chewing
- Aching around the ear or temple
- Jaw that locks, feels tight or tires easily
- Morning headaches or facial soreness from clenching
- Night guards or dental treatment that haven't been enough
- Pain that spreads to the neck or head
How We Evaluate TMJ Disorder
TMJ disorder can involve the joint, surrounding muscles and nearby nerves — and frequently coexists with headache or facial pain. Your consultation evaluates all of these so treatment addresses what is truly driving your symptoms.
Because TMJ disorder sits at the intersection of jaw, head and face, a physician fellowship-trained in Headache and Facial Pain Medicine is uniquely positioned to help.

Evaluate
A comprehensive examination and review of any imaging (MRI, CT, X-ray), with image-guided or ultrasound assessment when helpful, to pinpoint the likely source of your pain.
