Many times people suffer from sore muscles and joints. They have frequent headaches and the jaw joints pop and click with pain. There must be a good relationship between the teeth, chewing muscles, and joints. If the relationship is out of balance, a person can suffer. You do not have to suffer.
There are many people who are given night guards to try and help them feel better from headaches and TMD symptoms. These either make the problem worse or at best, have minimal affect at relieving discomfort. They do not get to the cause of the problem and will cause further damage to the joints.
We are committed to the effective treatment of the destructive effects of occlusal disease. We use a novel and exciting presentation tool called BiteFX that uses friendly animations to explain problems in a way that makes sense to the patient. With BiteFX, our patients quickly understand complicated concepts that were previously difficult and time consuming to explain. We can also combine photos of your mouth with the BiteFX animations to give you an even better appreciation of our treatment recommendations.
