Why is the dentist the last to know?

It happened again. A young woman suffering from vertigo, headaches and many other symptoms was finally referred to my office after 15 years of pain. She had been everywhere and treated with everything before someone suggested TMJ and even then she was not referred to the dentist until now. It happens all the time. Be aware, Doctors and other Health professionals treat to their knowledge. A Surgeon wants to cut, a Chiropractor wants to adjust and a MD wants to cure you with medicine. I am sorry that was harsh, but its up to you to decide who's treatment is right for you. Headaches can have many causes and sometimes eliminating something like foods from the list is just as important as finding the cause. It is very easy to examine a patient for signs of dental problems that could be causing headaches. Treatment involves a neuromuscular made orthotic. Completely noninvasive. So what do you have to lose, besides the Headache and pain. See your neuromuscular trained Dentist to eliminate your teeth and bite from your list of possible causes.


Until next time, Dr. Poe
