Experiencing jaw pain, headaches, or muscle tension that seem unexplainable and never fully go away? Many find it difficult to eat or relax their jaw, unaware of a possible temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD), which connects the jaw to the skull. At Star Bright Dental, we can create a pain management plan for you.
Our Technique:
Dr. Nguyen creates a FOSA (Field of Stabilized Occlusal Support Area) learned through advanced training with F.A.C.E. (Foundation for Advanced Continuing Education).
A FOSA is a form of occlusal splint therapy as part of our TMD pain management plan. It’s a custom-made dental splint that helps the jaw find its ideal resting position. Doing so, it relieves strain on the joints and surrounding muscles. By restoring harmony between the bite and the jaw, Dr. Nguyen helps patients experience long-term comfort, stability, and pain-free movement.
If you have questions about how this therapy works or whether it may help you, please feel free to contact us. Our team is happy to guide you through your options and help you find lasting relief.
