For many people the way their teeth fit together causes stress on
the jaw muscles and joints. Several people grind or clench their teeth.
Regardless of the reason, a poor bite and frequent grinding and/or
clenching can cause serious damage and pain to teeth, jawbone and the
muscles and joints controlling the jaw. Many people suffer from headaches,
head and neck muscle pain as well as ear pain, including popping and
clicking noises near the ear when they open or close the mouth. Often
it is due to a poor bite, clenching or grinding of the teeth.
Whether the problem is due to a poor bite or frequent grinding or
clenching, the jaw muscles never get a chance to rest. They are overworked,
fatigued and go into spasm. Some people can wear their teeth right
down to the gum line, some will experience loose teeth, and some will
have pain in or near the ear and possible radiating over the head and
neck. The muscles need a chance to rest. A new device, known as an
NTI-tss, can provide rest for the muscles and thus alleviate all the
above symptoms. It is quicker to fabricate then previous appliances
used for these problems, and it has been shown to give more complete
relief. It is so effective the FDA has approved it for reduction of
pain for migraine headache sufferers. It is custom fitted to your upper
front teeth, and provides a flat surface for your lower front teeth
to rest on in whatever position is comfortable for your jaw muscles.
It also helps break the cycle of grinding or clenching, which other
appliances used in the past did not do.
