The temporomandibular joints are located in front of each ear and they allow movement of the jaw up and down and side to side, so an individual can talk, chew, and yawn. Unfortunately, the area can be a source for pain that may take a while to resolve.

Sleeping with a snoring bed partner can be annoying and unhealthy for both people. Although snoring seems physically harmless, it may be a red flag for a much more serious and sometimes fatal condition called Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). This happens when the air passage deflates, blocking airflow into the lungs. The harder one tries to breathe, the tighter the air passage seals.

Dr. Cloud uses a state-of-the-art, 3D, digital presentation program called BiteFX™ that enlists the aid of elementary computer animations (no abstract art that looks like a Rohrschach test) to illustrate malocclusion (bad bite) in an easy to understand way. "Bite FX has been a great tool for educating my patients while discussing their mastication (chewing) workings and occlusal education," proclaims Dr. John Cloud.

Other individuals hide their smile out of embarrassment and in doing so lose their self confidence and social skills. Dr. Cloud can bring about life-altering smiles with new and safe oral sedation techniques that can mean after years of neglect and missed dental treatments they can be done quickly and with little or no discomfort.
