Does TMJ affect singing? Your voice control can be significantly changed by TMJ. Not only are you unable to open your mouth fully, but you may have unwanted muscle and tissue tension throughout the mouth region. In more serious cases, you may not be able to open your mouth to sing at all. ------------------------------------------
If there is tension in the jaw, there could also be some tension in your voice too - It all correlates. When the jaw is tense this tension is transferred to the tongue muscles, the hyoid bone, your resonators and to the larynx (your voice box) which affects the quality of your singing
