Can tmj kill u?



Answer:
Not the TMJ itself, no.

Symptoms of TMJ can be stressful to the point of depression.

Only if you let some quack dentist operate on you.
Not unless the pain is so bad you want to kill yourself. But don't do that. It's way too selfish, and a sin to boot. :)
absolutely not, it's a strain of the jaw
I'm not sure butn heres a site you can read up on it
You can NOT die from TMJ. If you haven't been treated by a dentist you should make an appointment so you can get some relief.
Well, it may lock up on you then you may starve to death. C'mon now.

TMJ itself will not kill you.

The symptoms of TMJ can cause stress, though.

If you haven't seen your dentist about this yet, I suggest making an appointment and asking about medicines to help relieve you.

Hope this helps!
I have heard of quite a few suicides where tmj problems were thought to be a big factor. Some cases can be frustrating.
I have heard of some cases that were successfully treated where the patient said that they were not going to commit suicide now.
Most of the time it is just another irritation that can often be treated.
