TMJ/TMD – Jaw Pain Chicago

Chicago jaw pain sufferers turn to Dr. John Kelly for expert integrated treatment. A step ahead of other Chicago dentists, your Chicago dentist Dr. Kelly collaborates with various medical professionals to design an effective treatment plan for you.

TMJ refers to the temporomandibular joint, located on each side of the jaw. It is not a condition, syndrome or disease. TMD (Temporomandibular Dysfunction) is a better way to describe associated dysfunctional symptoms of the TMJ, including jaw pain, headaches, back pain, difficulty chewing or biting, ringing in the ears, ear pain and more.
