TMJ stands for temporomandibular joints. However, it is also often used to describe temporomandibular joint disorders (TMJD).

The Pinhole Surgical Technique™ is a minimally invasive gum recession treatment. Unlike traditional grafting techniques, PST™ is incision- and suture-free. Traditional gum recession treatments involve the use of donor tissue or soft tissue grafts to rebuild the gumline. While grafting is relatively effective, more predictable results with a better overall patient satisfaction can be achieved through PST™.

Platelet Rich Fibrin permits the body to take advantage of the normal healing pathways at a greatly accelerated rate. Platelets perform many functions, including formation of a blood clot and release of growth factors (GF) into the wound. These GFs function to assist the body in repairing itself by stimulating stem cells to regenerate new tissue.

Functional Orthodontics consists of not only straightening a person’s teeth, but repositioning the upper and lower jaws to create a better profile.

If there is a weak chin or misalignment of either jaw the bite will be thrown off. This could lead to producing migraines, neck and shoulder pain, dizziness, sleep apnea, hearing problems, TMJ, upper airway obstruction and poor facial profiles.

A CO² laser uses carbon dioxide to generate energy that vaporizes the water found in soft tissues, providing quick, accurate cutting, with minimal bleeding. Lasers are well-suited for dental surgical procedures. The CO² laser is one of the gentlest, and most highly effective, tools at our disposal.

Thermography is designed to measure inflammation and can identify precise heat patterns within your body. These patterns may reveal an underlying physical condition, abnormal situation, or early signs of disease. We recommend that our patients use thermography to proactively safeguard their health by regularly measuring inflammation in their bodies.
