Safe BioPak and T-Scan Dentists in Muskegon, MI

What is TMJ Dentistry?

After an extensive two-week course at the Las Vegas Institute in April of 2018, we are now proud to introduce the BioPak and T-Scan! This new system has brought a whole new incentive to our TMD /TMJ range of patients. The BioPak is a complete system that records a range of parameters of the stomatognathic system including the function of the mandible and muscles of mastication. The information obtained by the system helps diagnose and treat temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), sleep disorders and craniofacial pain. It can be used for restorative, orthodontic, denture, implant and occlusal reconstruction patient evaluation. Biometric technology gives the doctor objective data from which to make decisions and measure documented treatment results. The T-Scan/BioEMG Integration software synchronizes the clinical data of T-Scan with the electromyographic data of BioResearch’s EMG unit. Together, they give a complete view of our patient’s bite. BioEMG measures muscular functions of the head and neck while the T-Scan shows occlusal contact timing and force distribution of teeth. This synchronization provides unparalleled evidence of what effect the occlusal contact arrangement is having on muscle function. With these new systems in place we are now able to eval and treat symptoms at the master skill level, delivering ultimate results for our patients! Get in touch with our veteran team today if you’re experiencing TMJ, and see if you may be able to benefit from these remarkable new technologies!
