Neuromuscular Dentistry

The right bite can relieve a host of painful symptoms. When the teeth and jaw are out of alignment, muscles in the neck and shoulders try to compensate. This can cause pain and headaches that cant be relieved until the jaws are realigned. Symptoms of a bad bite and jaw misalignment include frequent head, neck, back, or shoulder aches, abnormal tooth wear, snoring and pain in and around the jaw and MJ area. You may also suffer from earaches and ear "stuffiness," ringing in your ears; and you may hear clicking and popping sounds when you chew. Some patients experience dizziness, difficulty swallowing and even chronic fatigue.

How Many Americans Suffer From TMJ?

It is estimated that 40-50 million Americans suffer from these symptoms, although most do not relate them to jaw misalignment. Thanks to the field of neuromuscular dentistry, you may no longer have to endure unnecessary pain and suffering due to a "bad bite" (malocclusion).

I Suffer From TMJ. How Can Dr. Lipovetkiy help me?

Proper diagnosis is critical to make sure you receive the best treatment for your particular condition. Dr. Lipovetskiy may recommend treatment after conducting a thorough health history, a clinical exam and other diagnostic tests. Only minor corrective treatment may be needed, but orthodontics (braces) or full-mouth reconstruction may be required. When optimal correction is achieved, patients can experience benefits ranging from decreased pain and discomfort to better overall health and longer lasting dental restorations.
