The Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) is one of the most important joints in the body, connecting the lower jaw to the skull and enabling essential functions such as chewing, speaking, and mouth opening. When this joint becomes inflamed, damaged, or dysfunctional, it can lead to persistent pain, jaw locking, clicking sounds, restricted mouth opening, and difficulty performing everyday activities.
