Occlusal (Bite) Examination

There is often a need to evaluate the bite (occlusion) of a patient if the symptoms are consistent with an unstable bite. Bite forces affect the positioning of the teeth and jaws. By polishing the enamel surfaces and smoothing older fillings, our dentists will help you in redistributing and redirecting the bite force. Proper adjustments to the teeth surface can do away with headaches and other symptoms that result from improper biting patterns.
