DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENT
"Doctor, my jaws are making noise and popping. What is happening in my jaw joint?"
When tissues rub together, the movement causes vibrations. When using a stethoscope, you can hear approximately 50% of the vibration. But with the computer program we use called JVA (joint vibration analysis) we can hear 100% of the vibration and can classify the vibration into hard or soft vibration.
This diagnostic equipment is used in many Dental Schools in the United States as well as around the World.
