Welcome To Apollo Spectra Dental Care Hospital
Apollo Spectra Hospital offers specialized care for Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TMD), focusing on diagnosing and treating conditions that affect the jaw joint and surrounding muscles. Our comprehensive approach aims to alleviate pain and restore jaw function.
Temporomandibular Joint Disorders encompass a range of issues affecting the joints that connect the jaw to the skull. Common symptoms include jaw pain, difficulty chewing, headaches, and clicking or popping sounds when moving the jaw. Our dental team conducts thorough evaluations, including physical examinations and imaging
studies, to accurately diagnose the underlying causes of TMD, which may include jaw misalignment, arthritis, or muscle tension.
Treatment for TMD is tailored to the individual, addressing both immediate symptoms and long-term management. Options may include non-invasive therapies such as physical therapy, splints or night guards to alleviate grinding and clenching, and pain management strategies. In more severe cases, we may recommend minimally invasive procedures or surgical interventions to correct structural issues or relieve pressure on the joint.
Patient education is a crucial aspect of our TMD services. We provide guidance on lifestyle modifications, stress management techniques, and exercises to improve jaw mobility and reduce discomfort. Our goal is to empower patients to take an active role in their treatment, promoting a return to normal function and enhancing their overall quality of life.
