It is used to diagnose, repair, reposition, or replace joint structures that are not responding to conservative (non-surgical) care. TMJ surgery may involve minimally invasive techniques (such as arthrocentesis or arthroscopy) or open-joint operations (arthrotomy). It is most commonly discussed in the context of persistent jaw pain, limited opening, joint locking, or structural joint disease."}
