By understanding the link between TMJ problems and snoring, people can better address the root cause and find effective ways to improve their sleep.
Symptoms of TMJ-Related Snoring
If your snoring is related to TMJ, you might experience additional symptoms, such as:
- Jaw pain, tension, or soreness, especially in the morning
- Frequent headaches or neck pain
- Popping and clicking sounds when moving your jaw
- Difficulty opening or closing your mouth
- Interrupted breathing during sleep or waking up gasping for air
