Tightness or tension in the jaw is unpleasant and often painful. Your dentist can help identify the reason why you are experiencing this, so you can get treatment.

Key takeaways:

- Teeth-grinding can cause on-going jaw pain and damage teeth.
- A misaligned bite or jaw (temporomandibular jaw disorder) can be painful.
- Stress and anxiety can also cause tension in the jaw, causing pain.

Your dentist can help diagnose and often treat jaw pain. If you are experiencing pain, tension or other jaw issues, contact your dentist today.
"...symptoms often point to a larger problem that can easily be addressed with your dentist."
