TMJ disorder describes a
variety of conditions affecting the temporomandibular joint (the point
where the jaw opens and closes) and nerves related to chronic facial pain.
These problems are now more easily diagnosed by Dr. Ponte and treated than in the past. Women are twice as likely to be affected than men.
