TMJ Form

The temporomandibular joints (TMJ’s) are the points where the lower jaw attaches to the skull. The TMJ is like a ball and socket, with the skull being the socket, and the top of the jaw bone is the ball. TMJ disorder or TMD is a term used to describe acute and chronic problems with the temporomandibular joint and it’s supporting and surrounding structures of muscles, ligaments, and tendons.
