TMJ Treatment
« on: June 25, 2012, 04:36:59 AM »
Hello!

Has anyone ever heard of this procedure for TMJ? "make a small incision just in front of the ear with a fine needle and insert a camera to see what’s going on, and then rinse the area with fluid to clear out the particles and tiny pieces of bone causing inflammation"

I don't know about this either. Sounds a potentially risky with that region's nerve bundle.
