Sleep Apnoea and Snoring
Snoring in Australia has been a common household occurrence for as long as anyone can remember. We all know of someone who snores or has trouble with sleep disorders such as sleep apnoea and quite often passes it off as a way of life. Little do we realize that snoring can quite often be a warning sign that your body is not getting enough oxygen when getting that vital night’s sleep.
Facial Pain
We specialise in the diagnosis and treatment of Oral-facial pain, which is not caused by teeth. The type of pain may include neuropathy, headaches, neuralgia or burning mouth syndrome.
Temporamandibular Disorders
Temporomandibular disorder can sometimes be referred to as a jaw sprain. This means you may have either a sore jaw joint (Temporomandibular joint) or jaw muscles (muscles of mastication) or both.
At MOMC, we have a multi-disciplinary team to provide assessment, diagnosis and treatment options.
Dry Mouth/ Altered tastes
Salivary gland diseases can include infections and stones that can lead to pain, swelling, and dry mouth. Sjögren's disease, an autoimmune disorder, targets moisture-producing glands, causing dry mouth (xerostomia) and dry eyes. At Melbourne oral medicine centre, we can assist in diagnosis and provide management options for dry mouth.
Oral Mucosal Diseases
Oral mucosal disease is a specialized field focusing on diagnosing and treating disorders affecting the soft tissues of the mouth, for example: painful ulcers, infections, oral candidosis, lichen planus and inflammatory diseases. Management strategies involve clinical examination, diagnostic tests, and tailored treatments to alleviate symptoms, manage underlying causes, and monitor for potential complications.
Others
At Melbourne Oral Medicine centre, we also provide treatment for patients with oral manifestations of systemic diseases, such as immune related conditions.
