Best Neuromuscular Dentistry in Whitefield | Bangalore

Best Neuromuscular Dentistry in Whitefield.Many people have the habit of clenching and grinding their teeth during times of extreme anxiety and stress and this can happen during the day and at night. During clenching people tend to clamp their teeth together and tighten their jaw muscles which can result in substantial jaw ache and damage to the jaw. Grinding is when you move the jaw with the teeth clamped together. Both can result in damage to the teeth and flattening with sensitivity and pain. The medical term given to this habit is Bruxism. Although clenching and grinding (Bruxism) is a common habit and does not cause immediate problems, persistent clenching and grinding over a prolonged period of time can cause jaw pain and discomfort, locking of the jaw and degeneration of the teeth. Nocturnal or night time clenching and grinding can result in morning headaches, disturbed sleep, neck stiffness, tooth pain, etc. If left untreated, this can erode the enamel which is the protective layer of the teeth and grind the upper most layer resulting in chipping and cracking of the teeth. Enamel loss can lead to tooth decay and nerve exposure which can result in tooth pain and extraction.

HOW CAN SUNSHINE DENTAL HELP PATIENTS WITH BRUXISM

Dental Contact Analyser is an advanced EMG system to evaluate dental occlusion (the way upper teeth come in contact with the lower teeth) and to analyse the neuromuscular balance of the jaw joint. This EMG technology is very helpful in determining the cause of various symptoms like pain and locking of the jaw, clenching and grinding, headaches, earache, neck stiffness, etc. Synchromyography can determine occlusal variation in a few seconds. It is totally wireless, pain free and non-invasive. This procedure is fast and provides accurate measurements and can be repeated.
