Do you have a CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) machine you can't or won't use? We can help you become CPAP free. Dr. Benjamin Polan is one of the North Shore's leading dentists who effectively treats sleep apnea with oral appliance therapy. A device is worn in the mouth during sleep. It fits like an orthodontic retainer, and prevents the airway from collapsing by supporting the jaw in a forward position. If you snore or sleep restlessly, you may have sleep apnea. Please call to set up an appointment for a consultation. TMJ Neuromuscular Therapy Many people find it difficult to enjoy everyday activities due to chronic headaches, ringing in the ears, or jaw pain. TMJ, or temporomandibular joint, may be the underlying cause of the pain. Neuromuscular dentistry is the science of using the relaxed position of the muscles of the head and neck to put the jaw into the ideal position for function and comfort. This type of dentistry not only inspects the teeth and jaw, but it also looks at the muscles that control the jaw, and the nerves that control the muscles. Relieve TMJ pain with neuromuscular dentistry and get back to enjoying your life. Please call to set up an appointment.
