First Visit
Our aim is to make it as simple and easy as possible for you. First we will record any fillings or treatment you have had with a gentle examination of your mouth. We'll then listen to your symptoms and use our T-scan technology to take digital measurements of the pressure when your teeth bite together. This needs no injection, there is no drilling and it is not painful at all.
​
We will discuss the treatment options thoroughly with you. Treatment could include microscopically accurate adjustments to the biting surface of your teeth to ensure the pressure is evenly distributed when you bite using the state of the art T-Scan technology.
​
Some people with benefit from Dr Toms unique 'TMJ sliders'. These are worn nightly for 8-10 weeks which allows the natural healing properties within the joint to restore pain free function.
​
We will just give you all the information to make an informed decision and a complete rundown of the costs.
