Excellent service! I had terrible anxiety about dentist offices from a poor experience when I was a kid. I ended up not going to the dentist for many years as an adult, resulting in many problems. Ultimately, one day, I had a dental emergency and found Bridgetown Dental, who got me in immediately. I had so much fear about dentist offices that I was tearful during the initial consult. However, Dr. Kaady never shamed me for my worry. He was kind, explained everything about the procedure, and took the time to make me feel like he cared about my teeth and experience. I totally survived the cavity-filling! He asked if I would return (I had a lot more cavities) and start regular cleanings. Five years later, I am still a patient here! Valerie, who cleans my teeth, is wonderful! Everyone here is exceptional, professional, and friendly. I decline to go anywhere else. Bridgetown Dental cured my dentist office anxiety, and I highly recommend them!
Say Goodbye to Migraines & Headaches
There are many reasons for headaches. One of the most common causes is teeth grinding, also known as bruxism. Many people grind their teeth in their sleep without knowing it. Not only can this habit damage your tooth enamel, it can cause migraine and tension headaches. By stopping bruxism, we’ll end these headaches and protect your tooth enamel at the same time.
Your pain relief will come in the form of a custom-fitted mouthguard that you wear while sleeping. We’ll take impressions of your teeth that are used to create a professional mouthguard that fits you perfectly. When you wear it while sleeping, it will:
- Keep your teeth apart and prevent you from grinding them
- Enable you to wake up feeling refreshed with no headache
- Avoid damage to your tooth enamel that could require restorative dentistry to repair
- Relieve pressure on your jaw that can cause TMJ pain
In addition, we treat jaw pain with MLS (multi-wave locked system) laser therapy. You will love this treatment because it is painless and very effective. The laser will accelerate tissue repair, relieve inflammation, and stimulate new cell growth.
Your treatment begins with a simple exam. We’ll look for signs of teeth grinding that could be causing your headaches. Then we’ll make a diagnosis for a custom mouthguard and/or MLS laser therapy as needed. Soon you’ll wake up ready for the day, without any headache pain to slow you down.
