You may not realize it, but your temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is the most complicated joint in the body! This is partly because it’s the only joint that’s bilateral, meaning that the right and left sides have to smoothly work together for the joint to function properly. In addition, every time you eat something the chewing forces on each side must be balanced. As if that weren’t enough, the TMJ is also unique because it actually hinges and slides, whereas most of the joints in the body only move one way.
