Re: [ACEsthetics] Denture issue- medical

Rod,

Not sure how well that works in function. Trimming the bite is a good
idea but for full affect of orthotic and it's benefits will be hard in
my opinion. Thus this in fact might give you the idea that NM won't
work where in fact it might.

Howard, I think you and the patient are on to something... I'm thinking
bite more than acrylic.... is it possible to tens him, shoot a bite and
then trim the bite so he can wear it as a temproary orthotic over the
denture... then see if that helps.  that will rule out the acrylic.

I heard from a patient today who I haven't seen since making him a set
of dentures about 2 years ago. Lower has 2 implants with
locators.Medically, this guy has been a mess his entire life. In his
50's, on borrowed time for last 30 years. Several open heart surgeries.
Septicemia, thyroid ca, and on and on. A few months ago he started
having issues with tingling of the fingers. Computer programmer- he
thought it was carpal tunnels.He researches EVERYTHING, big time.
Carpal tunnels was ruled out. Then he had a major slip and fall. Messed
him up, followed by being broadsided and totalling his car. Laid him
up. It just keeps going. Then a GI blockage. They thought Ca. Ruled
out. Then tremors. Tongue tingles.Dry mouth (for years).
 Neurologist thought MS, Vision blurry. Then ruled it out for
Parkinson's, now they have no idea.
Last week he took the denture out  and stuck in an old one. Tremors
went away. Other symptoms subsided.
He thinks that maybe the acrylic wasn't completely cured.
Perhaps he is overclosed.
I am seeing him tomorrow just before his neurologist appointment.
Perhaps opening him up with neuromuscular bite, allowing more blood
flow to the brain. (There are some really interesting findings out
there re: occlusion and MS). Major stuff coming out of Edmonton.
Perhaps, just pressure cooking the denture will help.
Any thoughts???
Thanks,
Howard
