Neuromuscular dentistry is a specialized area of dentistry that focuses on the relationship between the muscles, joints, tendons, nerves, and bones in the sensitive connective area between your jaw and your skull.
One of the primary objectives of neuromuscular dentistry is the diagnosis of temporomandibular joint disorder (commonly referred to as TMJ or TMD) and its subsequent treatment through achieving a proper bite position. Pittsburgh dentist Dr. Charles Frye is among the few dentists in the Pittsburgh area trained in the field of neuromuscular dentistry.
