Unlikely. : Tmj is a syndrome and more than likely you had jaw problems before but no real symptoms until you broke your tooth. You may be able to get back to where you were before but more than likely you may have damaged the joint which may cause continued problems that will require TMJ therapy to stabilize and heal the joint. See a dds trained in tx of TMJ for evaluation.

It depends: What you are describing is an occlusion issue. Occlusion is the way your upper and lower teeth, work and fit together. How did you break your teeth? Was it traumatic? Trauma can cause tmj. Did you teeth break while you were eating? You may have had biting or occlusion issues before breaking. I suggest seeking consultation with a prosthodontist for TMJ & occlusion evaluation before treatment.

Tmj: The joiint pain may be occuring if the bite after your bondings was not brought back to its original position. You could have also injured your jaw when you broke the two teeth. I would suggest you see a TMJ specialist to find out the cause.

No: The chipped teeth are symptomatic of the TMJ syndrome. In other words, the jaw problem caused the teeth to chip. Fixing the teeth will not fix the underlying problem for that your dentist will need to fabricate a splint or removable device.

TMJ won't go away: TMJ won't go away with treating teeth. See a TMJ expert. Any dentist can be a TMJ expert with the proper training and experience. Most commonly, oral surgeons, prosthodontists, and orofacial pain specialists. Ask your MD, your dentist and your dental society for referrals.
