Your TMD questions (temporomandibular joint disorder) have answers. Dr. Alegre is qualified to determine if you suffer from TMD, as well as offering the best course of treatment for permanent relief.
Several diagnostic methods determine the severity of your TMD.
Neuromuscular Testing
Neuromuscular Testing evaluates how particular muscles and nerves work together, particularly the temporomandibular joint, teeth and jaw muscles. Any misalignment causes these painful and uncomfortable symptoms:
- Headaches
- Painful chewing
- Difficulty swallowing
- Shoulder pain
- Face pain
- Neck pain
TMD Testing Technology
TMD Testing Technology includes:
- Digital X-rays
- K-7 computer muscle testing
- Electronic mapping equipment (iCAT Digital CT Scan)
Testing and mapping determine the optimal position for your temporomandibular joint and assists your dentist in placing the TMJ back into alignment to alleviate your TMD symptoms.
Dr. Alegre is proud to offer these advanced and cutting edge dental treatment options to its patients.
