Ehlers Danlos and Chewing / TMJ issues

May: Ehlers Danlos Awareness Month

Ehlers Danlos and Chewing / TMJ issues

A hypermobile jaw joint can often lead to discomfort when chewing food, due to the instability of the TMJ (temporomandibular joint).

The discomfort could present itself as pain in the jaw area, clicking and grinding noises when the jaw is moving, and for some, the jaw may lock-up, requiring medical intervention.

Exercises to strengthen the jaw joint can help alleviate pains, reduce joint instability and minimise reoccurrence.
