The traditional focus of dentistry has been on the teeth, gums and bone. As a neuromuscular dentist Dr. Winchar also focuses on the muscles that move the jaw and the role of the temporomandibular joint in your overall dental health. Tension with the muscles, joints and teeth can lead to multiple dental and overall health issues such as the condition known as TMD or Temporomandibular Disorder.
Utilizing the techniques of neuromuscular dentistry Dr. Winchar has been able to help many people who have had problems traditional dentistry and medicine could not fix, freeing them of pain and discomfort. Neuromuscular dentistry can play a very important role in the treatment of chronic headaches, TMJ type symptoms, and upper body (neck, shoulder, back) problems.
