In brief: Very common. Sure, TMJ problems can cause facial muscle spasms. It's usually the jaw muscles, on the side of the jaw (the masseter muscle) and on the side of the head or temples (the temporalis muscle) that go into spasm and cause pain from TMJ problems.
When the jaw is out of balance, the cranial muscles experience stress as they try to compensate. This can cause the muscles of the jaw and ear canal to spasm, which affects all aspects of the trigeminal nerve: sensory, motor and propioreceptive. . Therefore patients suffering from TMD may experience chronic pain as well as movement issues, and respond well to TMJ therapy. A pioneer in this field, Dr. Brendan Stack, has impressively alleviated many tremor and movement disorder cases with jaw repositioning therapy (https://youtu.be/QUTzY5c6JOg).
