Neuromuscular dentistry

 
A physiologic aligned jaw
 
Did you know that the slightest imbalance in your temporomandibular joint may cause headaches, neck stiffness, dizziness, nausea, or premature wearing of your teeth? When the balance between your teeth, face and jaw muscles is disturbed, symptoms referred to by the term "TMJ disorders" (Temporomandibular joint disorders) disrupt your quality of life. If you suffer from these symptoms, neuromuscular dentistry as practised at Spa Dentaire Laval can definitely help you and significantly improve your quality of life.

Dr. Sahag Mahseredjian uses highly sophisticated computerized equipment to obtain extremely accurate information. By determining the state and exact position of tense muscles that cause problems, he makes a well-informed diagnosis and decides on the most appropriate treatment to restore the ideal aligned physiologic position.
 
Overall approach for ideal results
 
Our goal is to align your jaw. To do so, Spa Dentaire Laval first scientifically exams all components in minute detail: muscles, hard and soft tissues, teeth, nerves and joints.
