TMJ injuries frequently stem from motor vehicle accidents, often because of sudden impacts or whiplash that strain the jaw joint. Even seemingly minor collisions can result in notable TMJ issues characterized by pain, stiffness, and impaired jaw mobility.
Participation in sports and recreational activities, especially contact sports like football or hockey, can result in TMJ injuries from direct trauma to the jaw or face.
TMJ injuries can result from traumatic events such as physical altercations or assaults, where the forceful impact directly affects the jaw. Strikes to the face, including punches, kicks, or blows, may inflict damage on the jaw joint, leading to pronounced pain, swelling, and potential challenges in chewing or speaking.
Slip and fall accidents can also result in TMJ injuries, particularly if there is a direct impact on the jaw or face upon hitting the ground. The sudden force exerted on the jaw joint during a fall can cause misalignment or damage, leading to TMJ dysfunction and associated symptoms such as jaw pain and limited movement.

An examination or questioning is a crucial pre-trial procedure where legal professionals ask pertinent questions of all parties involved to gain a comprehensive understanding of the claim. During this phase, questions may revolve around the circumstances of the accident, the nature of sustained injuries, the impact on daily life, required treatments, and any consequential effects on employment or education.
Absolutely. Reporting injuries to your insurance company is crucial as you are entitled to “Section B” benefits under your insurance policy, covering treatment for up to two years post-accident. However, it’s imperative to notify your insurer promptly after an accident to adhere to the time limits for opening a Section B claim. Your insurance provider will typically require the completion of various forms, including the Notice of Loss and Proof of Claim, along with treatment recommendations from a medical professional. When you choose Richard Edwards as your TMJ injury lawyer, he will provide guidance and support throughout this process.
