What is the Trudenta process and how can it benefit me?

trudenta surrey vancouverThe Trudenta process is comprised of an assessment process and a treatment process. A qualified Surrey orthodontist should conduct both of these processes.

To start Trudenta in Surrey/Vancouver, you must visit an orthodontist who will begin the as-sessment. This begins with a bite force analysis, which will reveal any imbalances in your jaw, and will create a 3D digital model of the way forces are at work inside your mouth.

Next, your Surrey orthodontist will perform a range of motion analysis, discovering any irregu-larities and showing where to focus treatment.

A headache history form helps in understanding your symptoms and creating a detailed, accurate diagnosis.

A muscular exam checks your face and neck for trigger points, which are knots and bands in your muscles that can trigger pain.

A head health questionnaire uncovers any previous trauma that could be affecting your oral health.

When you are ready for treatment through Trudenta in Surrey/Vancouver, there are four aspects to the process.

Ultrasound therapy works to return circulation to your muscles and break up scar tissue and ad-hesions. This helps with trigger points especially.

Trigger point therapy targets areas of the muscles that are causing pain, through manual stimulation of your muscles. This helps with tension and gives your orthodontist a better canvas for other rehabilitation processes.

Electrocurrent therapy uses a painless, low level current, applied to areas of pain and sensitivity. This helps soothe inflamed muscles and stimulates the nerves, while reducing lactic acid buildup that can cause problems.

Finally, low level cold laser treatment works to heal inflammation.

All of these therapies and assessment programs work together to address orthodontic issues at their root, and treat them in a long lasting manner, reducing pain and strain on your body.
