Jaw Clicking? Why It’s More Than Just a Annoying Sound

Jaw clicking is often dismissed as a harmless sound, but it may indicate stress on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). When teeth are misaligned, the jaw muscles work harder to bring them together, creating tension that leads to clicking, pain, or stiffness. Over time, this imbalance can cause headaches, ear discomfort, and neck tension. At 32 Smiles clinic in Pune, Dr. Milind Darda focuses on diagnosing the root cause of TMJ problems and restoring proper bite alignment for long-term relief.
