Jaw Pain That Feels Like Ear Pain? TMJ Disorder Explained by a Specialist

Описание: Jaw pain, jaw clicking, mouth locking, or pain near the ear are often misunderstood and ignored for years. Many people treat these symptoms as dental or ENT problems, without realizing they may be caused by Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) disorders.

In this in-depth conversation, we are joined by Dr. Tofiq Bohra, an Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon Surgery and TMJ Arthroscopy. Dr. Bohra has undergone advanced international training and is among the very few specialists in India performing minimally invasive TMJ arthroscopy.

During this episode, Dr. Bohra explains:
• What TMJ disorder really is
• Why jaw pain often feels like ear pain
• Jaw clicking, locking, stiffness & facial pain
• When splints and medicines work — and when they don’t
• The importance of MRI in TMJ diagnosis
• Conservative vs surgical treatment options
• TMJ arthroscopy and why it’s still rare in India
• When you should see a TMJ specialist

If you or someone you know is living with chronic jaw pain, facial stiffness, clicking sounds while opening the mouth, or morning jaw lock — this conversation will help you understand when to wait, when to treat, and when to seek expert care.
