Dismissed
The appeal for service connection for a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder was dismissed due to a claims processing error.
The deciding factor: The June 5, 2025, NOD was an improper concurrent election as to the issue of service connection for a TMJ disorder, given that there was already a pending appeal from the March 15, 2025, Supplemental Claim.
