Neuromuscular dentistry is a dental treatment philosophy intended to correct a "malalignment" of the jaw at the temporomandibular joint and produce a balanced bite. The neuromuscular dentist uses several computerized instruments to measure your jaw movements and jaw muscle activity to determine the extent of your problem and to establish a "physiologic rest position" for the jaw. Here are some of the measurement techniques and procedures used:
- Electromyography (EMG) – involves placing surface electrodes over the jaw muscles that pick up electrical impulses and send them to the recording instrument. It is used to measure the activity in the muscles during various movements.
- Jaw Tracking (Electrognathograph, Kinesiography) – analyzes mandibular movements three-dimensionally. A headset is placed on the patient and a magnet is attached to the lower front teeth. Recording of the lower jaw movement is then made.
- TENS – ultra-low frequency electrical stimulation of the muscles to relieve muscle spasms and pain and help establish a “physiologic” jaw position. Once the rest position of the jaw is determined, the patient undergoes extensive restorative dental procedures or orthodontics to maintain this new position. Dr. Tatu's TMJ, Head and Neck Pain care is one of the first exclusive Neuromuscular dentistry clinic in India, over 4 years into operation. Learn more by visiting our website
