Gnathology (jaw joint and bite)

We help restore comfort when chewing and smiling by relieving pain, clicking and tension in the jaw.

⚠️ Important information: Appointments with a gnathologist are currently closed at the DobrýDent clinic. We cooperate with trusted specialists in Prague and, if necessary, refer patients to reliable partners. If you experience clicking, pain or tension in the joint, please contact our administrator and we will help you arrange a consultation.

Diagnosis and treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and bite disorders. We maintain balance between muscles, joints and teeth.

Gnatology is a branch of dentistry that studies how teeth, muscles, and jaw joints work together. If this balance is disrupted, pain, clicking, limited mouth opening, or chronic tension in the face and neck may occur.

At DobrýDent, we pay attention to these symptoms because patients often spend a long time searching for the cause and do not connect it to their bite. Our approach is comprehensive: consultation, functional diagnostics, and personalized treatment recommendations and joint relief.
