Bite Alignment

Facts

Your teeth position can alter the position of your jaw joints and muscles causing them to splint. Jaw bones push on paddings around your joints causing pain and unusual functional movements. Chronic discrepancies can alter the shape and blood supply to discs and pads causing inflammation and inability to have normal function.

Care

Early intervention with mouthguards, TENs (electro stimulus), orthotics, orthodontics can preclude more extensive treatment.
