About HEALमी
HEALमी is India's only exclusive Orofacial Pain & TMD Clinic — meaning jaw pain, facial pain and TMJ disorders are all we do. Unlike a general dentist or ENT who may see these conditions occasionally, Dr. Vijay K. Asrani has over a decade of dedicated specialisation, USA training at the University of Kentucky and Utah, and has treated 3000+ patients from across India and globally.
"We don't just manage your pain. We find its root cause — and then we fix it."
Dr. Vijay K. Asrani is the founder of HEALमी and one of India's leading Orofacial Pain & TMD specialists. He holds BDS and MDS degrees, is a Gold Medalist from Government Dental College & Hospital Ahmedabad (Civil Hospital), completed a Mini-Residency at the University of Kentucky, USA under Dr. Jeffrey P. Okeson — globally recognised as the Father of TMD — and advanced TMJ Arthroscopy training in Utah, USA. He is a member of the American Academy of Orofacial Pain (AAOP) and has treated 3000+ patients from across India and around the world.
This is the story of most patients who walk through our doors. Jaw pain, chronic headaches, facial pain and TMJ disorders are among the most misdiagnosed conditions in medicine — often mistaken for migraines, ENT issues or dental problems. At HEALमी we use structured DC/TMD diagnostic criteria and advanced imaging to identify what others have missed.
"If you've been told 'nothing is wrong' — we'd like to take a closer look."
Absolutely — and we actively welcome it. Many of our patients arrive having already received a diagnosis elsewhere that didn't lead to improvement, or having been advised surgery they weren't comfortable with. A second opinion at a dedicated Orofacial Pain & TMD clinic can often reveal that a different — and less invasive — approach is possible. Bring any previous reports, X-rays, MRIs or treatment records and we will review everything thoroughly.
Conditions We Treat
Common signs include: jaw pain or soreness, clicking or popping sounds when opening or closing your mouth, jaw locking or difficulty opening fully, chronic headaches especially in the morning, ear pain or fullness without infection, facial pain or pressure, neck and shoulder tension, and pain while chewing or yawning. Many patients also report teeth grinding during sleep and unexplained toothaches.
If you experience one or more of these — a proper TMD assessment is the right next step.
We specialise in TMJ disorders, jaw pain and locking, orofacial pain, trigeminal neuralgia, chronic headaches, facial nerve pain, bruxism and teeth grinding, ear pain related to the jaw, neck and shoulder pain from TMD, sleep apnea, medication overuse headache, and orofacial pain syndromes.
If your pain involves the jaw, face, head or neck — this is the right place.
Absolutely — and this connection is one of the most commonly missed diagnoses in medicine. The temporomandibular joint and surrounding muscles share nerve pathways with structures that trigger headaches. TMD-related headaches are often misdiagnosed as tension headaches or migraines for years. At HEALमी we specifically assess this connection and have resolved chronic headaches in hundreds of patients by treating the underlying jaw and muscle disorder.
In many cases, yes. Trigeminal neuralgia is one of the most painful conditions known to medicine, but surgery is not always necessary or the first option. At HEALमी we assess each case carefully to determine whether the pain has a musculoskeletal or joint component that can be managed conservatively — through medication, nerve blocks, physiotherapy and targeted treatment. Where a surgical opinion is needed we guide patients to the right specialist.
You do not have to jump to surgery without first exhausting non-invasive options.
Yes. Sleep disordered breathing including obstructive sleep apnea has a strong connection to jaw position, bruxism and TMD. We offer oral appliance therapy and work closely with sleep physicians where needed. Many patients come to us for jaw pain and discover an undiagnosed sleep component — and vice versa.
Treatment
We offer a full spectrum from conservative to advanced — splint therapy, physiotherapy with Cura-Laser, CBT-based pain management, meditation and relaxation therapy, TMJ Arthrocentesis (a minimally invasive joint washout procedure), muscle relaxant injections, and personalised multimodal treatment plans. Everything is available under one roof — no referrals needed.
TMJ Arthrocentesis is a minimally invasive procedure performed under local anaesthesia — most patients are surprised by how comfortable it is. The procedure typically takes 15–20 minutes. Post-procedure there may be mild soreness for a day or two which resolves quickly. Many patients notice improved mouth opening and reduced pain within days. It is followed by physiotherapy and splint therapy for best long-term results.
It depends on the nature and severity of the condition. Acute cases — such as sudden jaw locking or recent onset pain — often respond within a few weeks. Chronic cases that have been present for months or years typically require a structured programme of 3–6 months. Some patients notice significant improvement after a single Arthrocentesis procedure within days.
We give every patient a realistic, honest timeline at their first consultation — no vague promises.
Yes. TMJ disorders and orofacial pain are more common in adolescents than most parents realise — particularly in teenagers who grind their teeth, have experienced jaw trauma, or present with unexplained headaches. Early intervention in younger patients often leads to significantly better outcomes. We see patients of all ages and tailor our approach to be appropriate and comfortable for younger patients.
