This guide is intended to be a positive help and give hope to any of those who suffer from bad 'bites' and joint pain. My goals for this guide are three-fold: First -to help anyone with these problems to better understand what is going on so that their experience can be validated and any uncertainty or anxiety is removed. (Understanding and knowledge are comfort and power.) Second -to help anyone who suffers from the debilitating consequences of occlusal and TMJ problems to know how they might find inexpensive, quick, easy, non-invasive relief Third -and to then take this information and introduce it to their own dentists (as a better option than what they have previously learned about this subject) to actually achieve that relief. This little tome is inspired by those individuals... who keep their minds open and tolerant, who objectively observe without expectations, who aren't uncomfortable examining or afraid to question the status quo, who can comfortably step 'outside of the box' to look at things from a different perspective, to create for themselves that wonderful and satisfying opportunity to uncover and expose the previously unnoticed and 'unknown' ...by pointing out the obvious.
