T TMD Causes
TMD is not just a disorder, but a group of conditions, often painful, that affect the jaw joint or TM J and the muscles that control chewing.
According to statistics published in the Journal of the American Dental Association in 1990, 44% to 99% of TMJ problems are caused by trauma. This could have been an injury as obvious as a blow to the jaw with a fist or something as subtle as a whiplash injury with direct trauma to the head or jaw.
