It’s Beyond Just Balance

In addition to influencing your movement and concentration, the ongoing disturbances in balance can significantly impact other aspects of your life. Vertigo & dizziness sufferers commonly experience depression, fatigue, stress, and anxiety as well.

Take Control

Vertigo and dizziness can arise from various causes, making it challenging to determine the exact reason behind your symptoms. Fortunately, in many instances, these issues can be linked to underlying problems with the mouth and jaw. In such cases, chronic balance problems can be fully and permanently resolved.

The Symptoms

  • Vertigo and dizziness manifest as a disturbance in the sense of balance, accompanied by a sensation that one’s surroundings are shifting or moving.
  • However, this perceived movement is not authentic but rather an outcome of an underlying issue that disrupts the function of the body’s essential balance organ—the inner ear.

There Is No Single Trigger

Vertigo and dizziness can be triggered by various factors, such as medication side effects, ear damage or pressure, nerve damage, disorders affecting brain blood supply, and even anxiety.

It Could Be Related to Your Jaw

  • The human jaw can exert an astonishing force of over 260 pounds at the molars. However, unless this pressure is perfectly balanced, it can disrupt the delicate harmony of the jaw’s muscles, tendons, nerves, and ligaments.
  • The temporomandibular joint (TMJ), located in front of the ears, connects your jaw to the side of your head. It is one of the most complex joints in the body, featuring specialized structure and tissue composition. Any disruption in its balance can lead to symptoms like vertigo or dizziness.

Vertigo Treatments

Minimize the Symptoms:

  • Compensation therapy can train vertigo sufferers on how to handle sensory and balance information effectively.
  • Vestibular suppressant and anti-nausea medications can also help, but they may have side effects and are typically prescribed for short-term use.

Regain Control of Your Life

By Identifying and Treating the Underlying Cause:

  1. Bite Force Analysis: TruDenta technology analyzes and displays the different forces at play in your mouth and jaw, including the pressure exerted by each individual tooth.
  2. Range of Motion Analysis: TruDenta’s ROM system measures any abnormal or restricted movement in your head and neck, helping narrow down potential causes and develop a personalized treatment plan.

TruDenta’s Assessment Process:

  • Bite Force Analysis
  • Range of Motion Analysis
  • Headache History Form
  • Muscle Exam
  • Head Health Questionnaire

The TruDenta T-Scan technology allows us to precisely assess your mouth and jaw for dental imbalances during opening, closing, and chewing, right down to the amount and direction of the force exerted by each individual tooth.

Treatment Process:

  • Ultrasound
  • Muscle Therapy
  • Photobiomodulation

Each treatment plan is tailored to address the individual patient’s symptoms, incorporating several FDA-cleared, painless technologies, including ultrasound, low-level photobiomodulation, microcurrent, and manual muscle therapy.

The number of treatments needed varies, ranging from one to twelve sessions, with each session lasting one hour and completed on a weekly basis.
