Identifying The Source Of Your Headaches Or Jaw Pain With TruDenta

TruDenta involves a five-step diagnosis process and gentle treatment afterward. The diagnosis process includes:

• A Bite Force Analysis to seek any imbalances in your mouth regarding opening, closing, or chewing
• A Range of Motion Analysis to determine why you may be experiencing discomfort while moving your jaw or head
• A Headache History Form to document the frequency and intensity of your past headaches, which will help us provide the best treatment
• A Muscle Exam to see if knots of tension could be restricting your motion and/or causing any jaw imbalance
• A Head Health Questionnaire to find out if previous trauma to your jaw or head is causing your current issues

Providing Your Comfortable TMJ Treatment

Once we’ve determined what is causing your pain, we’ll recommend one of four noninvasive therapy treatments that typically last only 12 weeks. These treatments can:

• Return circulation to your sore muscles for pain relief
• Break up muscle knots and decrease inflammation
• Reduce muscle spasms and the pain they cause
• Heal your muscle and joint tissue
