“TMJ” stands for temporomandibular joint. These intricate joints are crucial in proper muscle and bone function. Elgin TMJ treatment from the Smile For Life Dental office can restore function to the intricate joints that connect the jaw bone to the skull. The TMJ enables you to open and close your mouth, chew, speak and swallow. When the TMJ is misaligned, it is called TMD – temporomandibular joint disorder, however many people refer to TMD as TMJ.
