WHY Is Evaluation of Physiologic Function Important?
The state of the teeth and the joints very often cause the muscles to accommodate. Evaluation of the hard tissue alone does not provide insight to the true status of the occlusal system. This is why the Neuromuscular Dentist uses objective, scientific documentation methods in the comprehensive evaluation of occlusion. Through the use of jaw tracking, electromyography and joint sound recording, a complete analysis of the function (or dysfunction) of the masticatory system is accomplished. <<< Previous Page | Next Page >>> Back to Information Pages Dr. Molly Rodgers, General Dentist – Providing services in cosmetic dentistry to the area of Edmonton Alberta, Canada.
