Damages for TMJ Injury
A TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) injury can be extremely painful and long lasting. This type of injury is often a result of a blow to the head or face that can occur in many types of accidents including car collisions or other motor vehicle crashes. Though other injuries may be more serious in a collision, it is important that you understand that you can get compensation for TMJ injuries as well. A TMJ injury may require special care that other injuries don’t need, such as dental care or surgery.

Possible Damages in TMJ Injury Accident Cases
Our Los Angeles TMJ accident attorney will work hard to get you the compensation you deserve. The purpose of this compensation, typically called damages, is to help you recover for the financial costs of your injuries as well as for other losses your injury caused in your life.
Possible damages for a TMJ injury include:
- Medical Expenses: You can be compensated for any money spent for hospital stays, doctor visits, prescription medicines, etc.
- Dental Costs: Many TMJ injuries require care from a skilled dentist who can assist in the treatment and care of your jaw
- Other Specialists: If you suffer from a TMJ injury you may have to see other specialists such as an oral surgeon, a speech pathologist (if the injury impacts your ability to talk) or a psychiatrist if the accident and injury has taken a toll on your mental health—the cost of this care should be compensated.
- Loss of Earnings: Many times, an injury like TMJ can be so painful or require medical treatment that results in you missing work. You should be compensated for any earnings lost during your time away, even if you used vacation or sick days to cover time missed.
- Other Damages: An injury like TMJ can have an impact in other areas of your life. As a result you are entitled to compensation for losses that occur as a result of your injury such as pain and suffering, emotional suffering, missed activities, loss of enjoyment of life, etc.
