Expert TMJ diagnostics: solving jaw and bite problems
from 17 000 ₽
Service description
Clicking in the jaw, pain in the temples and jaw muscles that tire quickly when chewing are signs that your bite is out of balance. At MediLavia, we offer expert functional diagnostics for complex patients, aimed at finding the root cause of discomfort rather than masking the symptoms.
We take an interdisciplinary approach that combines CT data, functional tests and biomechanical analysis. This lets us determine precisely whether the discomfort comes from the position of the teeth, the condition of the joint or muscle hypertonicity.
The outcome of the diagnostics is a clear rehabilitation plan, from splint therapy (mouthguards) to final prosthetics. Our goal is to restore comfort with every movement of the jaw and to make any dental treatment last.

Get the «Unified Quality and Safety Protocol» — how the clinic protects the patient along the whole route
The document explains how MediLavia's safety system works: the questionnaire and doctor's preparation before the visit, mandatory risk screening by the general practitioner, a single case coordinator, multidisciplinary treatment-plan approval, pre-procedure checklists and a reinforced standard in paediatric practice.
Frequently asked questions
In simple cases, yes. But if there is clicking or tooth wear, gnathological monitoring is essential for a stable result.
They help find the “neutral” position of the jaw, in which the muscles relax and the joint is not loaded. This is the basis for further treatment.
We analyze how the whole system works in motion, using articulators and special functional tests that are not part of a standard appointment.
