What
is Neuromuscular Dentistry?
To
understand Neuromuscual Dentistry (NMD), it
helps to first know a few things about your
occlusion or "bite". Your occlusion
is the way that your upper and lower teeth fit
together. The muscles of your head combined
with neck posture hold the lower teeth close
to the upper ones. You don't consciously hold
your jaw in this position - it is "programmed"
in your brain. Even though the present position
"programmed" by your brain seems like
it would be the optimal position, it is not
always the best one for you.
Neuromuscular
Dentistry (NMD) is a term applied to techniques
that expand upon the more traditional approach
to dentistry that is more mechanically oriented.
NMD places the occlusion where the muscles
that control jaw position are at their best
for optimal function and comfort. |
