CBCT TM Joints (Open & Close Mouth) is an advanced Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) examination that provides detailed 3D images of the temporomandibular joints (TMJ), which connect the lower jaw (mandible) to the skull. The scan is performed in both open-mouth and closed-mouth positions to evaluate joint structure, movement, and abnormalities.
This examination is performed to assess conditions affecting the temporomandibular joints, including jaw pain, clicking or popping sounds, restricted mouth opening, jaw locking, joint degeneration, arthritis, trauma, and other TMJ-related disorders.
It may be recommended for patients with symptoms such as jaw pain, clicking sounds, difficulty opening or closing the mouth, jaw stiffness, facial pain, suspected TMJ disorders, trauma, or those requiring evaluation before TMJ-related procedures.
Yes. It helps identify bony changes, joint degeneration, abnormal bone growth, fractures, dislocation, and other structural abnormalities of the temporomandibular joint. For soft tissue evaluation, such as the TMJ disc, an MRI may be recommended when clinically required.
CBCT TM Joints provides detailed 3D visualization of the temporomandibular joint, helps evaluate joint movement and structural abnormalities, supports accurate diagnosis, assists treatment planning, and provides valuable information for dental and maxillofacial specialists.
