WHAT IS NEUROMUSCULAR DENTISTRY?

Your jaw consists of a complex system of muscles, nerves, soft tissues, and hard tissues that must all work together to function properly. When your jaw becomes misaligned, it can lead to a condition called temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) which may result in chronic, debilitating pain throughout your face, jaw, neck, and back.

The field of physiologic dentistry focuses on restoring proper alignment to your jaw. If you suffer from pain associated with TMD, physiologic dentistry can help alleviate the pain you experience.

Dr. Adam Chapnick has extensive training in the field of physiologic dentistry, and he has helped many patients in the Barrie, Ontario area find relief from TMD symptoms. Dr. Chapnick’s TMD treatment plan is completed in two phases. The first phase seeks to relieve the pain you are experiencing. Once this has been accomplished, Dr. Chapnick will work to address the issues which have caused your jaw misalignment. By restoring your bite to its proper resting position, Dr. Chapnick can help prevent these painful TMD symptoms from recurring.
