What to expect at your first visit to our office?
During your first visit to our office, Dr. Reddy & Dr. Kodali and their team will conduct a comprehensive examination of your jaw, face, TMJ, bite, and mouth to accurately determine the cause of your discomfort. They will then create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
The initial consultation will involve the following:
- Review your medical history
- Thorough evaluation of your pain, discomfort, and any other symptoms you may be experiencing
- Cranial nerve screening
- Palpation of the muscles in your jaw, head, and neck to assess their condition
- Evaluation of your TMJ, including assessing its range of motion, tenderness, and any clicking or popping sounds
- Additional imaging procedures such as X-rays, panoramic images, CT scans, or MRIs, if necessary
- Additional tests, if needed, such as diagnostic topical anesthetics, muscle and nerve blocks, or blood tests
Through this comprehensive assessment, we will identify the underlying cause of your discomfort and develop a treatment plan that aims to provide you with the necessary relief.
