Description

Comprehensive Examination: The treatment process begins with a thorough examination by a dentist or specialist to diagnose Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) disorders. This includes assessing your jaw movement, listening for clicking or popping sounds, and evaluating any pain or tenderness in the jaw, face, or neck. Imaging: X-rays, CT scans, or MRIs may be used to get detailed images of the jaw joint and surrounding structures. This helps in identifying any structural abnormalities or inflammation. Medical History and Symptoms: The dentist will review your medical history and discuss your symptoms, including any history of jaw injuries, teeth grinding (bruxism), or stress-related habits that may contribute to TMJ disorders.
