If your physician can't pinpoint the cause of your neck and shoulder pain, perhaps the solution is in the hands of your dentist.
It is reported that the majority of North Americans put up with headaches, migraines, jaw pain, neck and shoulder pain as a result of jaw joint dysfunction, or a bad bite.
Physicians therefore may not have the answers, but a neuromuscular dentist most likely will.
Here's why, according LVI Global, the world-renowned institute for advanced dental studies: A "bad bite" (malocclusion) may in turn change the jaw-to-skull relationship causing the jaw to twist into a strained position.
Involved this the muscles of biting, chewing, talking, head posture and breathing are the bones of the neck.
If the shoulder, back and neck muscles are forced to compensate for the tight, sore and contracted muscles of the jaw, it will cause the shoulder pain you may have been experiencing.
Neuromuscular dentists can relieve the strain on the jaw and surrounding muscles by correcting the bite.
Neuromuscular dentistry not only benefits sore muscles, but also can help to relieve migraines and headaches brought on by TMJ/TMD.
