TMJ Disorders

Pain in your jaw joint? Trouble opening or closing your mouth fully? You might be experiencing a TMJ disorder. The Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) connects your jawbone to your skull and is responsible for essential movements like speaking, chewing, and yawning. When this joint becomes dysfunctional, it can cause significant discomfort, affecting your quality of life.

At SurgiDent, our team of skilled oral and maxillofacial surgeons and dental experts offer comprehensive care for TMJ disorders, providing accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment in Garfa, Jadavpur, Santoshpur, and the entire Kolkata region.

Common Symptoms of TMJ Disorders:

• Jaw pain or tenderness
• Clicking, popping, or grating sounds in the jaw
• Difficulty or pain while chewing
• Limited mouth opening or jaw locking
• Ear pain or a feeling of fullness in the ears
• Headaches, neck pain, or facial muscle fatigue
