TMJ-Related Neck Pain
& How We Can Help
Understanding Neck Pain and TMJ Disorders
Expert Care for TMJ-Related Neck Pain
Neck pain is a common but often overlooked symptom of TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders. The TMJ connects your jaw to the temporal bones of your skull, and dysfunction in this joint can radiate pain to the neck and shoulders. When the jaw joint becomes misaligned or inflamed, it creates muscle tension that extends down through the cervical spine and surrounding muscles. This can lead to persistent stiffness, limited neck mobility, and even chronic headaches. Addressing TMJ-related neck pain requires a comprehensive approach to correct jaw alignment and reduce muscular tension.
Symptoms of TMJ-induced neck pain often include a dull ache or sharp pain in the neck, tightness or spasms in the upper back, and difficulty turning or tilting the head. These symptoms can be accompanied by other TMJ-related issues such as jaw clicking, popping, or locking, as well as headaches and earaches. Because the muscles and nerves in the jaw and neck are closely interconnected, untreated TMJ disorders can result in prolonged discomfort and decreased quality of life.
