TMJ and Joint Hypermobility or Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome: What Changes?

Having hypermobile Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (hEDS), a hypermobility spectrum disorder (HSD) or generalized joint hypermobility may change how TMJ symptoms are assessed.

Most people with TMJ pain do not automatically need an MRI. Diagnosis usually starts with the symptom history and a clinical examination.

If you wake up with a sore jaw, a dull headache, or sensitive teeth — or your partner hears grinding at night — you may have bruxism, the medical name for teeth grinding and clenching.
