Synopsis

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders encompass a broad range of conditions that affect the jaw's function, causing pain, dysfunction, and sometimes damage to the structures involved. These disorders involve the temporomandibular joint itself, the muscles controlling jaw movement, and associated structures, including ligaments and nerves. The etiology of TMJ disorders can be multifactorial, involving genetic predisposition, trauma, malocclusion, muscle tension, or psychological stress. While conservative treatments such as physical therapy, medications, and splints are often the first lines of management, orthodontic interventions can also play a crucial role, particularly in cases where malocclusion or dental misalignment contributes to or exacerbates the condition.
