Many people have acupuncture for medical problems, but did you know that acupuncture can also help when you are at the dentist?  If you suffer from a sensitive gag reflex, or if you grind or clench your teeth, or even if you are very nervous- acupuncture can help.  Acupuncture has a scientific background and the efficacy has been tested in a number of clinical trials including pain management, facial pain, TMD and increasing of the pain threshold.

Acupuncture placed at very specific points on the face and the hands can have a huge beneficial impact.  If used in conjunction with breathing techniques if you are nervous or have a gag reflex or if you have TMJD (temperomandibular joint dysfunction) combined with a special deprogramming nightguard- This can really help.
