Neuromuscular Dentistry

Jaw and bite problems can cause serious pain and discomfort in the head, face, neck, and shoulders. Neuromuscular dentistry offers a solution to these problems, allowing Dr. Crary to realign the jaw and erase pain problems associated with the temporomandibular joint, or TMJ.

Do you suffer from some or all of the following symptoms?

  • Headaches
  • Loose teeth
  • Cracked, chipped, or worn teeth
  • Teeth pain
  • Neck or shoulder pain
  • Facial pain
  • Locking of the jaw or limited movement
  • Numbness in your extremities
  • Ear congestion

These are some symptoms of TMD, or temporomandibular disorder. Neuromuscular dentistry offers relief from the pain and discomfort of TMD using cutting edge technology.

At Aesthetic Dentistry, we use the latest neuromuscular dentistry technology to counteract your TMJ problems. Using a TENS (transcutaneous electrical neural stimulation) unit, Dr. Crary can address jaw alignment problems, bringing the jaw into a more balanced position. This piece of equipment relaxes the neck and head and stimulates the release of endorphins. Dr. Crary might also use electromyography (EMG) or sonography (ESG) to further assess and alleviate TMJ issues.

You may have been told in the past that no one could figure out why you were experiencing chronic head, neck, or shoulder pain. Let Dr. Amy Crary explore whether your problems might be TMJ-related with a neuromuscular dentistry assessment. You don’t have to live in pain any longer thanks to Aesthetic Dentistry.
