MIGRAINE TREATMENT WITH COSMETIC MAKEOVER

Today’s modern technology allows a few skilled doctors to provide life changing treatment options. 
We have been perfecting these treatments for over 10 years.

This beautiful lady came to our office for a cosmetic consultation.  She simply wanted a better smile.  After performing our thorough examination, we determined that she was suffering with severe migraine headaches and ear aches.  Our analysis concluded that her
jaw function was out of alignment by over 5 mm. 

We started our treatment with functional decompression appliances.  Within 6 months all of her headaches and ear aches were
eliminated.  Patient was truly amazed that our dental treatment alleviated and cured what numerous other neurologists and doctors
could not treat for over 20 years.

A comprehensive neuromuscular EMG study was performed before any dental treatment commenced.  This advanced diagnostic tool enables us to be able to precisely determine how we find harmony between muscle, bone, and tooth positions.  In this case, the EMG confirmed the need for 5 mm. of tooth support and advancement of the lower jaw to a position which would provide stability and proper function. 
Without and EMG study it is impossible to have the proper blueprint for cases that involve such complex issues.  It would be
similar to building a skyscraper without blueprints.

The treatment followed with reconstruction of her teeth and establishing a brand new bite and jaw position.  This work included porcelain crowns and veneers.  The final photo shows a close-up of her lower teeth, which shows longer than average teeth.  This was required in
order to provide the necessary jaw function and stability.  This was also necessary to prevent any future headaches.  As you can see
from the face photos, the length of these lower teeth did not affect her smile or show negatively in any way.  As a matter of fact, take
a look at the significant difference in her overall appearance.

This patient’s life has changed dramatically since completion of these services.  She can’t stop smiling and her confidence level is up
in the stratosphere!!!
