Temporomandibular joint syndrome (TMJ) can be a difficult-to-heal injury, often requiring multiple treatments and lengthy, expensive therapies.
TMJ syndrome often occurs after a sharp blow to the face. It can cause significant pain, be a major distraction, and may cause social discomfort in public.
TMJ Syndrome Symptoms
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects your mandible (jaw) to your skull. People often refer to pain or problems with the jaw as TMJ, but the inflammation of the joint is actually called TMJ syndrome.
TMJ syndrome symptoms include:
- Earaches or loss of hearing
- Discomfort, swelling, or pain in the jaw area
- Difficulty eating or moving your mouth
- Clicking sounds from the jaw
- Headaches
TMJ Syndrome Expenses
TMJ syndrome may require multiple treatments and expensive therapies. Oral surgery may be required to reposition or even replace the jaw. In some cases, dental or orthodontic work may be required along with rehabilitation. Overall, TMJ syndrome treatments can be quite costly, not to mention lowering your quality of life.
If you are able to prove your TMJ syndrome was caused by another party’s negligent or reckless behaviour, you may be able to claim compensation. TMJ syndrome expenses may include:
- Medical treatment costs – past, present, and future
- Loss of income for missed work
- Care costs associated with you or your household caused by your inability to perform your normal tasks
