At Erskine Family Dentistry, we offer Joint Vibration Analysis (JVA), an advanced diagnostic tool used to evaluate the health of your temporomandibular joint (TMJ). This non-invasive technology helps us accurately assess joint function, identify potential issues, and guide treatment plans for conditions like TMJ disorders and facial pain. What is Joint Vibration Analysis (JVA)? JVA is a state-of-the-art diagnostic procedure that measures vibrations in the TMJ. By placing a sensor near the joint, we can capture and analyze sound waves produced by the jaw’s movement. This analysis helps detect irregularities, such as inflammation or dysfunction, that may cause pain, clicking, or jaw locking.
• Accurate Diagnosis: JVA provides precise information about the health and function of your TMJ, allowing us to diagnose problems more effectively. • Non-Invasive: The procedure is completely non-invasive, meaning there’s no need for surgery or discomfort. • Pain-Free & Quick: The test is quick, painless, and provides instant results, ensuring you receive the care you need without delay. • Guided Treatment Plans: With JVA, we can develop personalized treatment plans based on your specific TMJ needs, whether it’s for managing pain, preventing damage, or improving joint function.
Joint Vibration Analysis is often used to: • Diagnose TMJ disorders (clicking, popping, pain) • Assess joint health following facial or jaw trauma • Evaluate jaw function and detect signs of early joint damage • Monitor the effectiveness of TMJ treatments
• Experienced Care: Our team of highly trained professionals uses advanced diagnostic tools to provide the most accurate assessments. • Comprehensive Treatment: From diagnosis to treatment, we offer a full range of services to help manage TMJ disorders and relieve facial pain. • Patient-Centered Approach: We focus on delivering care that’s comfortable, efficient, and tailored to meet your needs. If you're experiencing jaw pain, clicking, or difficulty opening your mouth, Joint Vibration Analysis might be the key to understanding and treating your condition.

"I have had a LOT of dentists in my life (I've moved a zillion times) but the folks at Erskine Family are THE BEST I've EVER had by far. I just had two fillings redone in spots that have previously been very painful and problematic for other dentists to deal with. At Erskine, it could not have been a better experience, and the resin fillings look beautiful. They are so skilled, nice, helpful, and organized. Thank you all,"
