💡 What Is TMJ?
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) acts like a sliding hinge, connecting your jaw to the temporal bones of your skull. It allows you to talk, chew, and yawn.

🔍 Common Causes & Risk Factors:
Teeth grinding (bruxism)
Jaw injury or arthritis
Misalignment of teeth or jaw
Chronic stress (leading to jaw clenching)
Poor posture

💆‍♀️ Ways to Manage or Prevent TMJ Pain:
Practice relaxation and stress-reduction techniques
Avoid chewing gum or hard foods
Maintain good posture
Apply warm compresses to relax muscles
Consider physical therapy or jaw exercises
Consult a dentist or TMJ specialist if symptoms persist - we can help! 🦷☘
