Neuromuscular Dentistry

"Our treatment is a very conservative approach that addresses your entire head and neck system without the use of medications or surgery. Our success rate at improving pain is nothing short of amazing. Many of our guests have sought help from every medical specialist possible with little to no relief, and with our treatment they are now experiencing life without pain." -Dr. Kelley Mingus, Providing Bend TMJ Relief

Thousands of people suffer from symptoms associated with TMJ dysfunction. In most cases, these people never make the connection between their TMJ and the pain they feel. If you suffer from headaches, migraines, joint pain, or neck and shoulder pain, and wish to live your life free from such chronic pain, you owe it to yourself to explore the possibilities here at Distinctive Dentistry.

For Dr. Mingus, neuromuscular dentistry is about finding balance within your head and neck systems. When your muscles are balanced with your joints, airway, posture, spinal alignment and your teeth, the cause of your pain goes away.

We invite you to read more about the symptoms of TMJ disorders, and the life-changing effect that our Bend, OR TMJ treatment can provide.
