The new dental-medical renaissance. Medically efficacious functional jaw orthopedics.
Functional Jaw Orthopedics (FJO) is medically efficacious, exceptionally unique and unequaled in speed of a cure for a number of very common medical conditions currently only "managed" by modern medicine. This publication combines scientific citations and case presentations to show how and why dentists who advocate and provide early FJO treatment will lead a New Dental-Medical Renaissance into some of the most profound areas of medicine. Nocturnal enuresis (chronic bed-wetting) otitis media (ear infections), cor pulmonare, cognitive thought, vision, hearing, cardio-pulmonary dysfunction, and myocardial infarction have FJO dental-medical relationships. Early FJO treatment fulfills the ADA Code of Ethics which "calls upon dentists to follow high ethical standards which have the benefit of the patient as their primary goal: Do No Harm and Do Good."
