Frequently asked questions

Is TMJ treatment painful?
No, the treatment is not painful. Orthodontic treatment, exercises and splints can feel uncomfortable at first, but the procedures themselves do not cause pain.
How long does TMJ treatment take?
It varies from person to person and depends on the cause of the problem and the treatment prescribed – from a few weeks to a few months. You will discuss the plan at your first consultation.
When will I start to feel the benefit?
Many patients feel less tension in the jaw area after the very first visit, although results vary from person to person.
How long does myofunctional therapy last?
Usually six months to a year: once a week for the first 2 months, then every 2–3 weeks for 4 months, and once a month after that.
What should I bring to my first consultation?
Doctors’ reports and test results (a panoramic X-ray, CT or MRI reports). If you have a splint, plate or other dental appliance, be sure to bring it.
How do I cancel or reschedule an appointment?
Your confirmation e-mail and text message include a “Manage appointment” link – use it to reschedule or cancel without calling. Please cancel at least 24 hours in advance.
Do I need a doctor’s referral?
No, a referral is not required. If you were referred by a dentist, orthodontist or ENT doctor, please bring their recommendations.
How do I get a gift voucher?
You can buy a voucher online and receive it straight away by e-mail. It is valid for 12 months and can be used when booking online.
What if I cancel less than 24 hours before or don’t turn up?
If you cancel less than 24 hours before your visit or don’t turn up, the full price of the service applies. After two late cancellations, your upcoming bookings may be cancelled. The rules are set by the clinic and are stated in your confirmation e-mail.
