Some potential causes of the disease include genetics, hormones, low-level infections, auto-immune diseases, trauma, and clenching or grinding of the teeth. Diagnosis and evaluation of such conditions are performed by dentists experienced in TMJ problems and treatments.
Some common treatments are Night Guards, Bite Guards, and Bite Adjustments. You may also benefit from surgical orthodontics. Your dentist can guide you toward the best treatment for you.
