What can an MRI of the jaw joint reveal?
A jaw joint MRI provides detailed images of the temporomandibular joints (TMJs) - the joints that connect your jaw to your skull and allow you to speak, chew and open your mouth.
Unlike an X-ray, MRI can provide detailed views of the soft tissues within and around the joint, including the articular disc, helping clinicians assess the structures involved in jaw movement and function.
A TMJ MRI may be recommended when investigating symptoms such as jaw pain, clicking or locking, restricted movement or persistent discomfort around the jaw and face.
