Jaw Joint (Temporomandibular Joint) Surgery - Causes and Risk Factors

The exact cause of TMD is often difficult to determine. TMD may be the result of various factors, such as the habitual grinding or clenching of teeth, the presence of significant stress, and previous TMJ injury. Certain systemic conditions may also contribute to TMJ dysfunction or pathology, e.g. rheumatoid or psoriatic arthritis.
