Wisdom Teeth

You or someone you know in the Riverside area may have had arthroscopic surgery to fix a knee, shoulder or hip injury, especially if the injury was sports related. But more and more oral surgeons are using this amazing tool for jaw disorders. If you're having problems with TMJ (temporomandibular joint dysfunction), your diagnosis doesn't have to be guesswork. At specializing in dental implants we can see joint structures clearly and start your treatment with confidence.

The arthroscope is a small microscope that is inserted into the jaw joint to monitor the surgery. Dr. Frangopol can watch closely as intrusive tissues - those that limit jaw mobility and impinge on nerves - are cleared away.

Since the arthroscope is less than 2 millimeters, there's no need for sutures and you won't experience any scarring.

Dr. Frangopol performs this procedure while you are under general anesthesia and you may require a short hospital stay. You may also need therapy to limber jaw movement. The good news is that patients who have arthroscopic surgery experience almost immediate relief from their symptoms and a rapid recovery.
