Are you one of the 35 million people in the United States who suffers from a TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorder?

We have been treating patients who experience low to severe TMJ pain for many years. We are thrilled to see phenomenal results from this revolutionary technology. How does it work? How can this therapy help you? What are the benefits?

What is cold (or low level) laser therapy?

Just as light bulbs come in different wattages, lasers produce different watts of energy depending on the required usage. Low-level lasers use light energy to penetrate deep into inflamed muscles and even target the joint itself.

A handheld wand that emits the light is moved over the skin and produces a warming sensation as it starts working on the affected tissues. The treatment is completely safe and painless.

Dr. O’Neill is one of only 3 dentists certified in the state of Colorado to use the FDA approved Multiwave Locked System (MLS) Therapy Laser. MLS therapy utilizes a patented combination of wavelengths simultaneously to improve the results achieved by traditional low-level laser therapy.

What are the advantages of MLS laser therapy?

  • Two wavelengths are used – one that reduces inflammation and one that relieves pain
  • Synchronizing the laser emissions produces strong effects in less time as the two wavelengths work together
  • Results are more consistent and repeatable

Speaking of results… what kind of results can you expect?

Pain management with no negative side effects

Exact causes of TMJ are difficult to diagnose, but typically people experience jaw muscle stiffness, limited movement and headaches radiating from tightness in muscles and ligaments in the face, neck or jaw. Treating the cause of these tense muscles is the key to reducing discomfort.

Some benefits of laser therapy are:

  • Immediate relief by reducing muscle inflammation
  • Promotes healing by increasing oxygen and blood flow to affected tissues
  • Non-invasive
  • No negative side-effects
  • Each procedure is quick, lasting under 10 minutes

How many treatments will you need?

Some patients experience long-term results after only 2-3 treatments. The effects are cumulative with most patients being prescribed 5-6 treatments every 2-4 days. It is important to follow-through on your prescribed treatments to experience maximum benefits.
