A 64 year old female developed classical symptoms of Trigeminal neuralgia ( pain radiating from the Tempero Mandibular joint down the lower jaw to the lower lip ).
The result of a mis- diagnosis ended up with her saliva gland being removed from below the floor of her mouth.
This did not relieve her pain at all, and when her glands in her throat started to swell again, they removed another saliva gland !
When this did not relieve her pain, they removed some of her teeth !
When she came to the Laser Clinic she was in quite a desperate state being drugged with pain killers and anti-inflammatory tablets and still in pain, which was profoundly affecting her life. She was unable to sleep due to the pain she was experiencing day and night.
After having three treatments with Low Intensity Laser, she experienced an improvement in that the pain was less severe and did nor worry her quite as much as before.
After 10 treatments there was only a slight feeling of irritation in the corner of her mouth.
She is obviously delighted with the treatment.
