What is TMJ Imaging in Pune?

Looking for TMJ imaging in Pune? The TMJ (temporomandibular joint) connects your lower jaw to your skull and controls every chewing, speaking, and yawning movement. When this joint suffers damage or inflammation, or has a structural abnormality, it can cause jaw pain, clicking sounds, or headaches.

Specifically, TMJ imaging uses specialised X-ray and CBCT protocols to assess the structure, position, and condition of the jaw joint โ€” diagnosing osteoarthritis, trauma, disc displacement, and developmental defects with precision. In addition, at Planora Imaging Centre, Dr. Manasi Kajale Salunke, MDS Oral Radiologist, writes every TMJ report.
