TMJ/TMD – Say ‘Goodbye’ to Headaches and Jaw Pain! Incorrect bite alignment can be the source of tremendous pain, and not just in your mouth. Dental occlusion (i.e. your bite) is sometimes the reason behind recurrent headaches, aching or popping jaws, and even the misery surrounding the area of your shoulders and neck. If your teeth have worn down over the years or been lost due to accident or dental disease, your jaw won’t be able to settle into the proper position. This unnatural state produces strain in the muscles of your jaw, and can lead to an assortment of body pains you’ve grown accustomed to and even attribute to other sources.

Dentistry Without Drills or Needles? Can you imagine going to the dentist and never feeling a drill or suffering the pinch of that dreaded needle?

The sound and vibrations of the drill have vanished – and so has most of the pain! For many procedures, it’s good-bye needles, good-bye drill! Cox Family Dentistry      James T.
