Orofacial pain can have various origins: dental, muscular, joint, vascular, or neuropathic. One of the most common causes is TMD (Temporomandibular Dysfunction), which affects the temporomandibular joints, the chewing muscles, and other associated structures.

Symptoms include jaw pain, joint clicks, difficulty chewing, headaches, as well as tension in the face and neck. Bruxism is often associated with TMD.

At the Clinic of Dr. Vanda Gandum, diagnosis involves a detailed clinical assessment, physical examination, and, whenever necessary, supplementary tests. The treatment plan is individualized and may integrate multidisciplinary approaches, such as Physiotherapy, Otolaryngology, and Sleep Medicine.
