Neuromuscular Dentist Greensboro, NC

A beautiful & healthy smile is more than just beautiful teeth. A healthy smile is formed when the muscles, bones, teeth and nerves are all working together. Since there is a relationship between the teeth, jaw joints, head and neck muscles, a problem in any one of these areas may affect others, causing some of the signs and symptoms listed below. Our neuromuscular dentists are properly trained to align your bite and help create harmony between the muscles, nerves, and teeth, giving you the ultimate smile you deserve. If you are an athlete or participate in athletics, we also provide Pure Power Mouthguards, design specifically for protection and performance enhancement using neuromuscular science. Please call for an appointment if you think your symptoms may be helped through neuromuscular dentistry.

Some common signs and symptoms are:

  • Worn dentition (shortened teeth)
  • Clenching or grinding
  • Chewing difficulties
  • Headaches/Migraines
  • Neck, Back & Shoulder Pain
  • Numbness in Fingers and Arms
  • Nasal Congestion
  • Ringing or Stuffiness of the Ears
  • Pain or Soreness around the Jaw Joints
  • Pain in teeth that seems to move around
  • Limited Movement or Locking Jaw
  • Clicking and Popping Sounds in the Jaw Joint

Neuromuscular and TMD

These symptoms are often referred to as TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint Disorders), TMD (Temporomandibular Disorders), or MPD (Myofascial Pain Dysfunctions). Doctors Hanna and Weston use neuromuscular dentistry to allocate the teeth and jaw into its optimal alignment, relieving the symptoms and pain associated with TMJ. This is usually accomplished with the use of a myomonitor and placement of a small removable mouthpiece, called an orthotic. Doctors Hanna and Weston can work with you to reveal the reasons for your discomfort and get you on the track to a healthy smile. We want your smile to be a part of your confidence, not discomfort. Contact us today to learn more about how our TMJ and neuromuscular dentistry treatments can get you on your way to a pain-free, beautiful smile.
