Lauren, a woman from Lancashire, suffers from TMJ disease causing her jaw to lock, leading to a severe restriction in diet and loss of employment. After years of agony, she underwent various treatments including a procedure to burn off inflamed tissue and an injection of platelet-rich plasma, yet continues to struggle with chronic pain. She is now considering a jaw joint replacement operation.
A WOMAN suffering from the same agonising condition as Zoe Ball - was left with a "locked jaw" and on a blended diet for two years.TMJ stands for temporomandibular joint , which is the joint that connects your lower jaw to your skull in front of each ear.
Lauren, who works in business development, from Helmshore, Lancashire, said: "I think it is amazing Zoe is sharing .Zoe Ball’s BBC Radio 2 Breakfast replacement revealed as presenter reveals she’s stepping downShe said: "My jaw was locked."She also had to give up her job as a therapist."I lost weight. I was five-and-a-half stone at my lowest."Lauren decided to go private to get an answer and was finally told she had temporomandibular joint disease in 2023.
But her surgeon recommended she have some operations to fix her pain first - as a replacement jaw joint will likely only last 10 to 15 years.
