For jaw, facial, head and neck symptoms

TMJ symptom quiz

A short screening tool to help patients recognise symptoms that may be connected to jaw function, clenching, grinding, headaches, ear symptoms, sleep, or facial pain.

Before you begin

This quiz is designed to help organise your symptoms before you take the next step. Your answers do not provide a diagnosis. They help identify patterns that may be useful during a TMJ assessment, including symptoms linked to jaw movement, pain, clenching, grinding, ear symptoms, headaches, sleep and daily function.
