At London Dental Specialists, we diagnose TMJ disorders through a comprehensive examination that includes evaluating jaw movement, listening for clicking or popping sounds, checking for tenderness, and assessing your bite. In some cases, we may recommend imaging such as X-rays, CT scans, or MRIs to get a detailed view of your jaw structure and confirm the diagnosis.
London Dental Specialists offers several evidence-based TMJ treatments tailored to your specific condition. Our treatment options include:

At London Dental Specialists, we focus on addressing the root cause of your TMJ issues rather than just treating symptoms. Many patients experience complete relief with appropriate treatment, particularly when the condition is diagnosed early. Regular follow-up appointments help ensure long-term success and prevent recurrence.

Mild cases may show improvement within a few weeks with conservative treatments like splints and exercises. More complex cases might require several months of consistent therapy. At London Dental Specialists, we provide realistic timelines based on your individual assessment and monitor your progress closely to adjust treatment as needed.
