TMJ Disorder Treatment in Abu Dhabi – Boston Dental Center
At Boston Dental Center Abu Dhabi, we provide advanced diagnosis and treatment for Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TMD/TMJ) to help you restore comfort, improve jaw function, and prevent long-term complications.
The temporomandibular joints (TMJ) are the hinges that connect your jawbone to your skull, allowing smooth movement for speaking, chewing, and yawning. Each joint contains a disc that cushions the joint and ensures fluid motion. When this system of muscles, ligaments, discs, and bones is disrupted, it can lead to a TMJ disorder, causing pain, restricted movement, and other uncomfortable symptoms.
Common Causes of TMJ Disorders
TMJ disorders can develop due to various factors, including: Arthritis – Degenerative or inflammatory joint conditions affecting the jaw Jaw Injury or Trauma – Accidents or blows to the face Dislocation – The ball moves out of the socket, disrupting movement Bite Misalignment – Uneven teeth or jaw positioning Bruxism (Teeth Grinding/Clenching) – Often related to stress Muscle Tension – Resulting from posture or repetitive jaw movements
