Abstract
The Right Bite Airodontics© protocol is an all-encompassing set of diagnostic and treatment regiment to help patients suffering from TMD, SBD and CCMD. It combines varied allied objective medical procedures like EMG (Electromyography), ESG (Electrosonography), JVA (Joint Vibration Analysis), Kinesiography, Axiography, Postural Sway Analysis, CBCT (Airway Volumetry), PSG (Polysomnography), GemPro Sleep Bruxism Analysis and TScan/Occlusense (Occlusal analysis); and other physiological tests like Cranial Nerve screening, Rocabado Distraction technique, Chirodontics (Cranial Suture release), MFT (Myofunctional Therapy), PRP therapy, Digital Smile Designing and Airway Expansion appliances. Add the ULF TENS pulsing to all the above, Airodontics© aims to achieve the most precise and ideal bimaxillary jaw position to attain the right bite!
Dr. Raj will walk through these procedures to give you a glimpse of the vast ocean that’s Neuromuscular Dentistry.
