Mr Elledge continues to provide total alloplastic joint replacements of the #tmj to patients who meet the criteria. Fortunately very few patients require such major surgery, but for those who do he is one of a handful of surgeons trained to provide this final step in treatment.
Mr Elledge’s practice is keeping up with current trends and best evidence-based care. All patients can benefit from a holistic approach to their facial pain and/or temporomandibular joint issues with me. He works with accredited members of the Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Temporomandibular Disorders at the early stages to maximise the benefit of conservative treatments. He provides bite-raising appliances at The Westbourne Centre.
For the small number who require further treatment Mr Elledge is now using Nexus CMF 1.9mm 30deg arthroscopes which are state of the art and backed up by training the US at their facility. He can provide this treatment at The Priory Hospital and Spire Parkway Hospital under daycase general anaesthesia.
For the very small number of patients requiring open surgery, Stryker CMF TMJ Concepts custom implants are his go to devices. With bespoke design and long-term data outcomes, they are the best on the market and trusted by Mr Elledge to give a patient decades of pain free function.
If you have TMJ issues and/or facial pain, get in touch today and see what Mr Elledge can do for you to get you out of pain and functioning well again.
