Jaw Pain TMJ-TMD Treatment In Toronto
Jaw Pain TMJ-TMD Treatment
Our approach, Oral System Biology (OSB), looks at how the mouth can impact the health of a person leading to symptoms of pain and discomfort. Our goal is to re-establish the balance between all the oral structures leading to muscle relaxation , comfort, and improved health.
OSB is different from many of the contemporary approaches to jaw function in that with OSB, the tongue is considered vital to the balance of the mouth structures, so an oral appliance is designed to support it.
Evaluation of the patient is done through history taking, cephalometric (profile) X-ray, models of the teeth and critical care monitoring (BP, oxygen saturation, pulse). The purpose of treatment with the appliances is to restore oral/mouth function only, no medical condition is treated through this therapy, rather only oral function is balanced.
If you suffer from jaw pain, schedule a consultation with a dentist today to help ensure your optimal long-term health!
