What's Causing Your Headaches?

50 million people in America suffer from chronic facial pain, including temporomandibular disorders (TMD)...

-American Academy of General Dentistry

Do you suffer from frequent headaches? Are they sometimes accompanied by dizziness? Has your discomfort ever reached your face, jaw, neck, or shoulders? Do you ever experience a ringing sensation in your ears? Do they sometimes feel clogged or sore even though you have no ear infection?

If you answered "yes" to any of these diagnostic questions, you could be one of an estimated fifty million Americans who suffer from chronic facial pain or TMD. TMD, also called TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) Disorder, is a condition in which the joint that connects the jaw to the skull ceases to function properly, often leading to pain and discomfort through the head, face, and jaw, and sometimes extending to the neck and shoulders.

Luckily for TMJ sufferers, our very own Dr. Mike Pilar, DDS, offers advanced treatment for TMJ pain, migraines, and chronic headaches. With more than 40 years of experience behind him, Dr. Pilar has developed a safe and unique state-of-the-art protocol for the treatment of TMJ Disorder using Neuro-Mechanical Acutherapy, Class IV cold laser therapy and an advanced Pilar-Type NTI muscle orthotic.

To see if you're a candidate for this treatment of TMJ pain, please call Dr. Pilar direct for a free consultation right over the phone at 917-414-8355.
