Advanced Solutions for TMJ
Do you suffer from chronic pain in your jaw and face, experience "popping"
sounds when you chew and talk or have symptoms such as headaches or lockjaw? If
so, the problem may be TMJ. This condition affects more than 10 million people
in the U.S. alone. And it’s more than just painful — over time it can cause
serious damage to your jaws and teeth.
TMJ Dysfunction is a popular term to describe a disorder of the jaw joints or
the muscles that control the joints. Symptoms masquerade as a multitude of other
problems such as sinus headaches, migraines, neck and shoulder stiffness and
earaches.
We can pinpoint the source
of your pain and provide relief using the very latest in gentle, nonsurgical
treatments such as NTI.
NTI Tension Suppression System (NTI-tss)
The NTI Tension Suppression System is an FDA approved device that is designed
to prevent headaches and migraines caused by night-time clenching. Unlike
conventional full-coverage bite guards, the unique clear, plastic NTI-tss guard
is worn over the front two teeth to prevent contact of the canines and molars.
The NTI device relaxes the muscles involved in clenching, thus diminishing the
chances for migraines and tension headaches to develop. The NTI-tss device
provides a durable, precise fit that is proven to last three times longer than
conventional acrylic guards.
