Dental bruxism is the medical term used to describe habitual clenching or grinding of the teeth and jaw. Stiff or fatigued jaw muscles when you wake up in the morning, headaches, neck aches, sensitive teeth, jaw pain, and noises when opening or closing your mouth—these can all be signs of dental bruxism and TMJ disorder. Several factors contribute to the development of a TMJ disorder, such as stress, bruxism, arthritis in the jaw joint, and trauma or injury to the neck, head, or jaw. TMJ disorders and bruxism are two common dental problems that impact your overall quality of life. If bruxism has become severe, it can lead to serious complications, such as severe facial or jaw pain, damage to your teeth, restorations, crowns, or tension-type headaches. The disorders occur in the temporomandibular joints (TMJs), located in front of your ears, and may produce a clicking sound when you open and close your mouth. TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders can disrupt your day due to the pain.
