Dr. Daniel Rubenstein answered

Specializes in Dentistry

TMJ pain: TMJ pain is most often caused by chronic grinding and/or clenching your teeth, or a bad bite. In any case, diagnosis and treatment by a TMJ knowledgeable dentist is important. Painkillers will not eliminate the problem, which will continue unless the cause of the pain is eliminated.
