Dyson just solved flossing with a toothbrush that does it for you! A gadget that uses Ai and a camera to automatically floss while you brush. 59% of Americans don’t floss daily and 20% don’t floss at all! It scans your mouth 28 times a second, and fires tiny bursts of liquid into tight spaces where the plaque can settle. The process is so subtle, it feels like regular brushing.

More and more patients are needing to wear niteguards for bruxing and grinding and many patients find the devices difficult to wear on a consistent basis. Daily stress is increasing with the current wordly state of affairs. A great alternative is the use of Botox injections into the masseter muscle whichs connects to the jawbone beside the TMJ joint. It’s deep fibers stabilize the TMJ joint, but when the muscle is overworked and clenching and grinding occur, the Botox injection “freezes” the muscle so it cannot contract, halting the grinding process.. It will not affect any other aspect of chewing or opening and closing your mouth, and patients find it a great relief from facial pain, headaches and excessive wear on their dentiton. If interested in this procedure, give a call to my office at 707-963-2321, and I’ll be happy to answer any questions you may have.
Happy Holidays!
