Vertigo & Dizziness

It’s More Than Just Your Balance

In addition to affecting your movement and concentration, the constant disruption of balance can also affect your life in other ways — depression, fatigue, stress, and anxiety are all common among vertigo & dizziness sufferers.

Take Control

Vertigo and dizziness can have many causes, and it can be difficult to pinpoint which one is responsible for your symptoms. Luckily, in many cases vertigo and dizziness can now be traced to underlying problems with the mouth and jaw — in these cases, chronic balance issues can actually be completely and permanently resolved.

The Symptoms

  • Vertigo and dizziness manifest as a disruption of the sense of balance and a feeling that one’s surroundings are shifting or moving.

  • This feeling of movement is not “real,” but rather a result of an underlying problem that is disrupting the function of the body’s most important balance organ — the inner ear.

There Is No Single Trigger

Vertigo and dizziness can have many different causes — medication side effects, damage to or pressure on the ear, nerve damage, disorders that affect blood supply to the brain, and even anxiety.

It Might Be Your Jaw’s Fault

  • The human jaw can generate over 260 pounds of force at the molars, and unless this pressure is perfectly balanced it can throw the delicate balance of the jaw’s muscles, tendons, nerves, and ligaments into disarray.

  • The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is where your jaw connects to the side of your head, right in front of the ears. It one of the most complicated joints in the body and has a specialized structure and tissue makeup, and any disruption of its balance can result in symptoms like vertigo or dizziness.

Vertigo Treatments

Minimize The Symptoms

  • Compensation therapy can train vertigo sufferers how to best handle sensory and balance information.

  • Vestibular suppressant and anti nausea medications can help, but cause side effects and are typically prescribed as very short term solutions.
