Welcome

Elaine M... "I just wanted to say I am very happy with my outcome from having laser surgery on my gums... I have always had bleeding gums as far back as I can remember. It has been a year since I had the treatment an my gums had not bled at all!! I can actually bite into an apple and there is NO blood. I am very happy with this and would highly recommend the laser treatment to friends, co-workers and family Thank you again!"

headache relief ...

How often do you wake up in the morning and say “I feel fabulous”?  I mean really feel fabulous.  If you are like the majority of adult Americans the answer is not very often. 

If your answer was "Not very often," please take a moment, go to a mirror andlook at Headacheyour lower front teeth.  Are they shorter than they used to be?  Are your upper front teeth chipped?  Are your canine teeth (eye teeth) worn flat on the tip?  If so these are all signs of night time tooth grinding.  Believe it or not night time tooth grinding could very well be the reason why you are missing that “fabulous” feeling in the morning.  It has also been shown to be one of the leading contributing factors to migraine headache pain

NTISo what can Dr. George do about it?  There is an FDA approved device specifically designed to treat this condition.  It is called an NTI-TSS.  In clinical trials by the FDA, 82% of migraine suffers had a 77% reduction of migraine pain events while wearing an NTI during sleep.  These are better results than most if not all “headache medication”.

We have been using the NTI for several years now with spectacular results.  The NTI is a small plastic device you wear over your two front teeth while sleeping.  Wearing this device overnight eliminates clenching forces for all practical purposes.  As a result of wearing the NTI, the muscles in your jaw and face are much more relaxed in the morning, there is no more abnormal tooth wear, and the frequency and severity of migraine pain is significantly reduced or eliminated. 

In many many instances patients have returned to the office to thank us for making them an NTI.  Some have expressed that little piece of plastic has practically changed their life.  That is a great feeling for a dentist.  

Our favorite patients are well informed patients
