TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders, also known as TMD (temporomandibular disorders), refer to a range of conditions affecting the jaw joint and surrounding muscles. These disorders can result in symptoms such as jaw pain, facial pain, headaches, clicking or popping sounds in the jaw, difficulty in opening or closing the mouth, and even earaches.
