Dr. Tasleem Ahmed Mentioned in Latest DTR/TMJ Discussion with Dr. Kerstein
We were delighted to see Dr. Tasleem Ahmed mentioned in a recent video by Dr. Robert Kerstein on DTR therapy for TMJ
In that presentation, Dr. Kerstein outlines how Disclusion Time Reduction (DTR) uses objective measurements to guide occlusal adjustment, aiming to relieve stress on the jaw muscles and joints. By shortening the time that the back teeth remain in contact during side-to-side movements, DTR can help reduce symptoms like jaw pain, headaches, and muscle tension.
Having Dr. Ahmed referenced in this context highlights her involvement and recognition in advanced occlusal and TMJ care. As a clinician deeply committed to precise, evidence-based dentistry, Dr. Ahmed integrates concepts like DTR into her approach—ensuring patients receive treatments grounded in measurement, not guesswork.
If you’re experiencing symptoms such as jaw discomfort, popping, or tension-related headaches, feel free to reach out. Dr. Ahmed can assess whether DTR-informed strategies or other modern methods might help you find relief.
