Understanding, Assessing and Treating Dentomandibular Sensorimotor Dysfunction

By DMD Mark W. Montgomery and MPS Alison M. Dimatteo, BA

An invaluable resource for dentists that defines the physiological and neurological anatomy in the dentomandibular area and its connection to pain. It also explains how dysfunction in this area can be the underlying cause of many chronic headaches and migraines, as well as other painful and discomforting symptoms, and how and why dentists are in the ideal position to treat them. A comprehensive rehabilitation therapy, which is discussed and illustrated in this well-referenced text, can be used effectively in the dental practice to target the heart of the dysfunction and sensorimotor influence. With illustrations, photographs, and easy-to-follow tables, this book is an educational volume sure to enlighten and inspire dentists who are interested in doing more to relieve their patient's pain. It's also a must-read for dentists looking to stabilize the dental foundation prior to undertaking smile designs or full-mouth reconstructions.
