Diagnosis

X-rays or imaging help us understand the joint structure and identify contributing factors.

Treatment Planning

We create a personalised plan — which may include a night guard, bite adjustment, or exercises.

04

Ongoing Monitoring

Regular check-ins track your progress and adjust treatment as needed for lasting relief.
