Do you or someone you know suffer from tension headaches? Do you wake up with a headache, jaw pain and or neck soreness? These symptoms could be a result of involuntary clenching at night. Clenching your teeth while asleep and during the day is the result of some of the strongest muscles in your body tensing up ( up to 6-20 times more intensely than non sufferers), which can cause morning and tension headaches, and even damage surrounding joints, teeth, and other muscles. These muscles- called the temporalis muscles- are located on the sides of your head and are used when you chew or close your mouth. When you clench your teeth, these muscles can create a great deal of stress and tension: to your jaw joints, to your neck muscles, and your teeth. An NTI appliance can eliminate the need for prescription and over the counter pain medications. Call us today for a consultation. 770-709-5595

Don’t like to Floss? Then one of these products is just for you. I love them both but the Soft-Picks are my personal favorite. They come with a little carrying case so you can take them with you. Brushing alone does not remove all the plaque. Pick some up today and let me know how much you love them!!!

“ Does an electric tooth brush clean better than a manual?” I get this question 2-3 times a week. The answer is Yes, Absolutely Yes, without a doubt Yes!!!! My favorite Electric toothbrush is a Sonicare. 31,000 brushstrokes per minute. Can you do that with a manual brush? The biggest mistake I see people make when brushing is not brushing at the gum line and taking the time to thoroughly clean all teeth. The sonicare has a built in 2 minute timer. I promise, start using an Electric Tooth brush 2 times a day for a full 2 minutes 45 degree angle at the gum line and you will see results quickly. Healthier gums and quicker easier cleanings. It’s a Win Win.
