What is the bottom line for the taste-based approach for bruxism and TMJD?
Put simply, for bruxism the taste-based approach has the potential to stop the behavior and arrest any related symptoms. For TMJD, the situation is much more complicated. For starters, bruxism may be the primary cause, completely absent, or a secondary cause in any TMJD patient. The Taste-Based approach therefore has the potential to completely resolve, not help at all, or provide partial relief in any given case. Understanding the contribution of bruxism to the TMJD problem is not necessarily easy to do. Perhaps the common sense approach of linking obvious dental damage from bruxism to TMJD through a patient history would make a person more likely to be helped by the taste based approach. As previously discussed, the TMJD world is filled with uncertainty. Therefore, it is best to proceed very carefully from the conservative, reversible, non-invasive procedures to more aggressive approaches. This is not just my recommendation, but the recommendation of the largest unbiased, government
