Welcome to Sri Sai Sabari Dental Clinic, where we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, also known as temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD). Our experienced team of dentists and specialists is dedicated to providing personalized and effective TMJ/TMD treatment to alleviate pain, improve jaw function, and enhance the overall quality of life for our patients.

1. Comprehensive TMJ Evaluation: Our clinic offers a thorough and comprehensive evaluation for patients experiencing symptoms of TMJ/TMD. This includes a detailed examination of the jaw, bite, and surrounding structures, as well as a discussion of symptoms, such as jaw pain, headaches, facial pain, and difficulty in jaw movement.

2. Customized Treatment Plans: After a precise diagnosis, our team develops customized treatment plans tailored to each patient's specific TMJ/TMD condition. These plans may include a combination of conservative, non-invasive approaches and advanced interventions, depending on the severity and nature of the disorder.

3. Occlusal Splints and Night Guards: Occlusal splints and night guards are often employed to alleviate the effects of teeth grinding (bruxism) and clenching, common contributors to TMJ/TMD. These oral appliances help protect the teeth, relax the jaw muscles, and promote a more balanced bite.

4. Physical Therapy for TMJ: Our clinic offers physical therapy techniques specifically designed to address TMJ/TMD. These may include exercises to improve jaw mobility, stretches, and techniques to relax and strengthen the jaw muscles, contributing to overall joint health.

5. Medication Management: For some patients, medications such as muscle relaxants or anti-inflammatory drugs may be prescribed to alleviate pain and reduce inflammation associated with TMJ/TMD.

6. Bite Adjustment (Equilibration): In cases where an imbalanced bite contributes to TMJ/TMD symptoms, our dentists may perform bite adjustment procedures (equilibration) to ensure a harmonious occlusion and alleviate stress on the temporomandibular joint.

7. Advanced Imaging and Diagnosis: Our clinic utilizes advanced imaging technologies, such as cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), to obtain detailed images of the temporomandibular joint and surrounding structures. This aids in accurate diagnosis and the development of targeted treatment plans.

8. Patient Education and Lifestyle Modification: Understanding the factors that contribute to TMJ/TMD is crucial for effective management. Our team provides thorough patient education, including guidance on lifestyle modifications, stress management techniques, and habits that may exacerbate TMJ/TMD symptoms.

9. Surgical Intervention (if necessary): In cases of severe or persistent TMJ/TMD, surgical intervention may be considered. Our clinic collaborates with oral and maxillofacial surgeons to provide advanced surgical options when conservative measures prove insufficient.
