TMJ/TMD is often a leading cause of jaw, neck, and shoulder pain as well as
frequent headaches or migraines. A dental malocclusion is the reason, which
means your bite does not come together as nature intended. This causes the
muscles in the scalp, jaw, and adjacent areas to be strained, which leads to
pain.
We can restore your bite to its proper position, so you no
longer have to put up with frequent pain and suffering. You reap the
benefits with increased energy from diminished pain. This new quality to
your life will have you smiling more often.
You may not have heard about an FDA-approved use of BOTOX® therapy for head,
neck, and/or facial pain. The same effect of BOTOX that reduces
the appearance of wrinkles (relaxing muscles) is used to reduce the
intensity of muscle contractions. Intense and/or prolonged contractions of
our muscles used for chewing can cause pain and damage to our teeth. Pain
can be in the contracted muscle or can be referred to a distant site. Severe
clenching and grinding of the teeth can cause the teeth to chip, break, or
even need root canal treatments. One BOTOX treatment can provide relief for
up to three months, and a side benefit is the reduced appearance of lines
and wrinkles. You'll look AND feel refreshed! Schedule your complimentary
consultation appointment to learn more or ask us next time you come in.
Advanced research in dental problems related to migraines and tension headaches has led to the FDA-approved NTI™ device. This is an effective alternative to the use of drugs to relieve pain. The oral appliance relaxes the muscles of the scalp, reducing tension-related pain. Headache and migraine sufferers have been impressed with the results they receive. Studies show that 82% of patients who used this device have had 77% lower occurrence of pain. Let us tell you what we can do for you or someone you love who suffers from this problem.
If you have been living with the pain and discomfort described above, we invite you to call (770) 623-8750 to discover the benefits that these treatments may bring to your quality of life.
