The New Orleans Saints have just won the Super Bowl with most of the team's players wearing the Makkar PPM or Pure Power Mouthguards. Tracy Porter (who ran for a TD after catching the interception from Peyton Manning) is an advid proponet of the mouthguard. The PPMs are fitted using neuromuscular dental principles: putting the lower jaw into optimal position, (usually down and forward), thereby, aligning the spine. When the head, neck, and spine are properly aligned, balance, strength, range of motion, flexibility, and endurance are improved.

Using the these same neuromuscular dental principles, headaches, bite problems, and TMD signs and symptoms can often be treated. The computer scans and EMGs used in treating TMD is the same technology used to make PPMs! Check out our website: http://www.advancedsmiledesigns.com/pure-power-mouthguard.html
