TMJ Disorder Overview 

If conservative treatment methods for your TMJ disorder prove ineffective, your doctor may recommend TMJ surgery as the best course of action to alleviate symptoms. Surgery is often reserved for the most severe cases of TMJ disorder and designated as an outpatient procedure. 

Our oral surgeons treat TMJ disorder using jaw reconstruction, arthrocentesis, arthroplasty, arthroscopy, and open-joint surgery. You and your doctor will determine which is right for you depending on the severity of your TMJ disorder symptoms.
