TMJ is a potentially debilitating condition that, if not treated, can worsen, causing chronic pain and limited jaw mobility. Depending on the type of treatment required, it can be an expensive condition to treat, but for many people thereâs a problem: getting insurance to cover it. Unfortunately, TMJ coverage by insurance is hard to get in many places. The Affordable Care Act mandated coverage of many conditions, but TMJ was not one of them, so unless your state mandates coverage, itâs likely to be excluded. Currently, there are 20 states where TMJ coverage is mandated:
-TMJ is the temporomandibular joint. -We all have one! (2; 1 on each side) -TMD is temporomandibular dysfunction. -This is when the TMJ has a problem. -Suspected in presence of these cardinal problems: orofacial pain (pain around the mouth, teeth, or face), restricted jaw motions, joint noise (pop, click)
