The Temporomandibular joint or the TMJ are joints that enable you to open and close your jaw. When the TMJ is injured, we refer to it as Temporomandibular joint dysfunction or disorder. TMJ injury can be caused by trauma from an accident. During a high impact collision, your body endures stress to a great degree. This includes pressure spread across your jaw’s connective tissues and joints. Although this form of injury may not be apparent, ongoing effects can occur in connection with persistent neck pain, sleeping difficulties, and overall mobility.
