Diagnosis and management of jaw joint pain, clicking, locking and arthritis.

TMJ Disorders & Surgery

The temporomandibular joint is the most-used joint in the body. Mr Farook offers a full pathway from conservative management to arthroscopy and joint replacement.

About tmj disorders & surgery

Most TMJ pain settles with a properly fitted stabilisation splint, physiotherapy and lifestyle change — invasive treatment is reserved for the minority whose symptoms do not respond. Where imaging (MRI is the investigation of choice) shows internal derangement or degenerative change, arthrocentesis and arthroscopy are effective minimally invasive options. Total joint replacement using a custom-made prosthesis is reserved for advanced arthritis, ankylosis, or failure of previous surgery, and is planned from a CT scan on a virtual model.
