Many overlook how much havoc whiplash injuries can create in our jaws and in our bite. It can throw our TMJs (jaw joints) out of wack, in turn causing referral pain such as headaches and neck pain!

A few things we look for at your cleaning and check up appointments regarding sleep apnea 🤔😴

Every sleep apnea patient who ditched their CPAP has asked this before: “Will this appliance work?”
Here's a fantastic article by fellow MATRx Plus sleep test provider that may offer some "proof."

A shout out to Rajesh Raveendranathan for a truly epic inaugural ICCMO conference with over 300 doctors. Thanks for letting me be a part of this first event by sharing my experiences in treating chronic pain. And a special call out to Konstantin Ronkin, Prabu Raman, Patrick Girouard, Fabio Savastano, Tatu Joy, Julia Worrall, Myotronics, Bioresearch, T-Scan, Don Delgado, Akshay Narayan and of course Rajesh Raveendranathan and his lovely wife Asha Rajesh. All of the above bro...ught their knowledge and skills to this ICCMO event.
These conferences are about helping doctors help their patients. Without the efforts of these great people our profession becomes relegated to being tooth mechanics while serious patient health concerns are left undiagnosed and untreated.
Our next international ICCMO event is May, 2019 in Moscow. Be there.

Just a gentle reminder.
Chronic pain shouldn't be swept under a rug nor should you feel guilty when you're finding time to seek help.
