In brief: Very common. Sure, TMJ problems can cause facial muscle spasms. It's usually the jaw muscles, on the side of the jaw (the masseter muscle) and on the side of the head or temples (the temporalis muscle) that go into spasm and cause pain from TMJ problems.
Some patients are known to have had chronic pain for years with related pain in the neck, back, hips and even the lower leg areas. If the teeth bite together incorrectly, especially if the lower jaw is forced up and backwards, then the whole skeletal base becomes in a state of imbalance. Symptoms The symptoms of having a TMJ dysfunction include muscular compensation which in itself can cause muscular pain elsewhere in the body.
