Can TMJ Disorder Cause Headaches, Neck Pain, or Ear Symptoms?
Many people experiencing unexplained jaw discomfort often ask, can TMJ disorder cause headaches, neck pain, or ear symptoms? The answer lies in how closely the jaw joint connects with facial muscles, nerves, and the ear structure. When the TMJ is strained or misaligned, pain can radiate beyond the jaw, leading to tension headaches, neck stiffness, ear pain, ringing, or a feeling of pressure. At Smile Masters And Jaw Joint Matters, TMJ-related symptoms are evaluated holistically to identify the root cause and create targeted treatment plans that provide long-term relief and restore everyday comfort.
