Mar 12th, 2008 by Dr. Kourosh Maddahi DDS
Symptoms of people with TMJ and/or grinding or clenching their teeth include:
- When you open and close your mouth there is a clicking or popping noise.
- You can not really open your mouth wide because of pain.
- If you keep your mouth open, it gets tired very rapidly.
- Headaches, especially in the morning, due to grinding your teeth at night.
- Many teeth are sensitive to hot and cold; not just one tooth.
- When chewing, there is pain in the whole area of the mouth.
