In this video, Dr. David Shannon, dentist in Northridge, CA., discusses jaw bone loss and its consequences. Jawbone loss can result in a myriad of related health issues due to a misalignment of the jawbone joint. The joint, called the TMJ, sits on the base of the skull, held in place by a series of balanced ligaments. When teeth are lost, the rest shift. The misalignment places stress on the TMJ, resulting in a tightening or a loosening of the surrounding muscles. This shifting results in symptomatic headaches. Chiropractic adjustments are often necessary to bring the body back into realignment. Diagnosis of TMJ problems should be done by a dentist, who could usually provide effective treatment and correction for prompt resolution.
