The Role of Neuromuscular Dentistry in Sports

Neuromuscular dentistry in sports focuses on aligning the jaw and optimizing the function of the muscles in the head, neck, and jaw, which helps reduce stress and improve overall athletic performance.

In this CDA Oasis discussion, Dr. Jan Chithalen, a general dentist and member of the Academy for Sports Dentistry, outlines the impact of neuromuscular dental devices on athletic performance and their potential role in preventing or managing sports-related injuries.

The Academy for Sports Dentistry Global Symposium takes place this June 26-28, 2025, in Washington, D.C.
