Digital X-Ray of Right T.M. Joint open & close Mouth Price in Bangladesh

What is Digital X-Ray of Right T.M. Joint open & close Mouth?

A Digital X-ray of the Right Temporomandibular (T.M.) Joint with the mouth open and closed is used to evaluate the joint and surrounding structures for conditions like joint dysfunction, arthritis, dislocations, or malocclusions.

The X-ray is taken in two positions: with the mouth closed to assess the resting joint position and with the mouth open to observe the movement and any changes in alignment or joint space. This helps identify issues such as abnormal wear, dislocations, or changes in joint function.

Preparation is minimal, typically involving the removal of any metal objects or jewelry around the head and neck area. Risks are low due to minimal radiation exposure.

Results are interpreted by assessing joint alignment and any signs of pathology in the TM joint.

What to expect & how to prepare

An X-ray takes a picture of bones or chest structures in a few seconds. A radiographer positions you, asks you to hold still and briefly hold your breath for chest views. Nothing is injected.

• Eat and drink normally: a plain X-ray needs no diet restriction before your appointment.
• Metal: remove jewellery, coins, belts and clothing with zips or hooks over the area, or change into a gown as advised.
• Positioning: you may be asked to stand, sit or lie in a specific position — for weight-bearing views you will stand on the affected limb.
• Bring earlier films: previous X-rays of the same area help with comparison.

A plain X-ray uses a small dose of ionising radiation. Tell the radiographer before the exposure if you are pregnant or think you might be.

Taken by a radiographer and reported by a radiologist; bring the doctor's advice that requested it.
