Bite Adjustment - Waterford, CT

Have you been experiencing the following symptoms? Jaw pain, sore facial muscles, teeth grinding and clenching, worn or broken teeth, difficulty eating, mouth breathing, headaches. These are all common consequences of malocclusion, or a “bad” bite. This condition can develop as a result of misaligned teeth and facial asymmetry or be the result of a dental crown or cavity filling that has unbalanced your smile. Your teeth are designed to fit together like gears and work in harmony with each other for comfortable biting and chewing. If your top and bottom teeth don’t come together properly (malocclusion), some teeth will touch before others and result in improper distribution of force and pressure.

This unbalance in your bite will lead to numerous short- and long-term consequences that affect your dental function and overall comfort.

This procedure requires a wealth of knowledge in dental occlusion and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) function to provide beneficial results.
