Which Specialist Should I See for TMJ Disorder?

Pour les troubles de l’ATM (articulation de la mâchoire), le spécialiste le plus indiqué est souvent un chirurgien maxillo-facial, surtout en cas de douleurs, craquements, blocages ou problèmes d’occlusion.
Un orthodontiste peut aussi intervenir lorsque le problème est lié à l’occlusion ou à l’alignement des mâchoires. La kinésithérapie peut également faire partie du traitement selon les cas

Hello,

For a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, several specialists can be involved depending on the cause and severity of your symptoms.

In most cases, the first professional to consult is a general dentist. They are trained to evaluate jaw function, bite issues, and muscle-related problems, and can initiate appropriate treatment such as a night guard or conservative therapy.

You may also be referred to:

A TMJ specialist or dentist with expertise in occlusion: for more complex bite or joint-related disorders
An oral and maxillofacial surgeon: in cases involving significant joint damage, structural... issues, or when surgical evaluation is needed
A physiotherapist: especially if muscle tension or jaw mobility is a major component
In some cases, an ENT specialist or pain specialist may be involved if symptoms overlap with ear pain or chronic pain conditions Read more
