We are very experienced
at diagnosing and treating
head and neck pain and
can refer you to hospital
or back to your doctor
if we diagnose your problem
as being outside our remit.
Jaw
joints are us! Many people
erroneously attend their
doctor if they have jaw
pain. We are experts
at diagnosing and treating
jaw joint problems with
a full range of different
treatments from simple
pain killers and physio
exercises through to
complex bite splints and
even surgery in hospital
for the rare few.
Arthritis of the jaw joints is uncommon. The joints are
the only joints we possess
that are vascularised which
means they have a proper
blood supply and are able
to heal if they are damaged.
Our other joints heal poorly
because they have poor blood
supply.
