Tight facial muscles

Question

Asked for Male, 20 Years

I am being treated for tmj disorder. I always feel that my facial muscles especially under my chin are so tight that it has changed my normal facial symmetry. Why these muscles are so tight? Can tmj splint remove tightness from muscle and bring me back my normal facial structure? Please help.
