TMJ & Bruxism Relief from Asesso Health | Chicago Midwinter Meeting with Dr. William Cliff
Send us Fan Mail Dr. William Cliff’s number one priority is learning to make accurate diagnoses for his patients. After working with tons of patients and monitoring their dental symptoms at his endodontic practice, he realized that most of the people he was treating were actually suffering from TMD. This inspired him to create the Grind Guard, a uniquely designed night guard that monitors patients’ symptoms via a sensor module and tracks their progress via a mobile app, allowing them to find relief from teeth grinding and clenching (TMJ/Bruxism). ✨Work with Assesso Health: https://asessohealth.com/ 📺Make sure you subscribe to catch Chicago Midwinter Meeting discussions on our channel every Monday! 🌟Follow the DINKs to stay up to date on all the latest dental trends: https://linktr.ee/dentistsintheknow
