TMJ, or temporomandibular joint disorder, affects the joint that connects your jaw to your skull. When this joint is misaligned or inflamed, it can lead to a variety of symptoms, including pain, headaches, limited jaw movement, and even a change in facial appearance.
Clenching your jaw is a common symptom of TMJ, and over time, this can cause the muscles in your jaw to become overworked and enlarged. This enlargement can contribute to a less defined jawline, especially for those seeking that sharp, sculpted look.
The good news is that TMJ is treatable!
