TARK1NGTONS Downtown Edenton, Views On Dental Health Richard N. Hines, Jr. D.D.S., FAG.D. And Dental Problems Stress can affect you in many ways, sometimes leading to den tal problems when habits such as grinding the teeth develop. Brux ism, or grinding of the teeth, is usually an unconscious activity, occuring during the night when you're sleeping. The results are often felt in the morning when you feel pain or a dull aching in your jaw joints. This is one of the symp toms of temporomandibular joint syndrome (TMJ), and the pro blems can intensify until the con dition is treated by your dentist. Many forms of treatment are available, including the use of relaxation drugs as well as exer cises. The goal is to help return the jaw to its normal function, eliminating the muscle spasms that cause pain and discomfort. Treatment will also include atten tion to other dental problems caused by grinding of the teeth. One of the most common is malocclusion or improperly align ed teeth, which can intensify the pain associated with tem poromandibular joint syndrome and cause it to spread to other areas of the head and neck.

It usually results from a cornea that isn’t perfectly round, but shaped more like a football than the usual basketball shape. It might help to imagine the cor nea (lens of the eye) as a dome divided into segments by lines drawn across its surface that in tersect at its center, like the longitudinal lines on a globe. The ~T£Sr?nal eyETWffia'SpHettCal nea.h^st differently curveahnes, with any given line either flatter or steeper than the one perpendicular to it. The result is that the vertical and horizontal components of both near and far images can’t focus, together. The image appears blurry. In other instances, it is the crystalline lens — not the cornea — which is at fault in astigmatism. In either case, correction can be made with contact lenses or spectacles. better vision • office of: m,Jr., O.D. ? 482-3218 103 W. Eden ton Street TEENS & GIRLS CLUTCH 12.97 Shoe Show Sfprm Hours.
