S6:E50 - Dr. Brock Rondeau: Treating the Jaw for Overall Health

My guest today is Dr. Brock Rondeau. Dr. Rondeau is a General Dentist who has dedicated his practice to providing Orthodontic, Orthopedic, Snoring & Sleep Apnea, and TMJ services for his dental patients in his London, Ontario, Canada office.

Dr. Rondeau treats many patients with orthodontic snoring, sleep apnea, and TMJ problems. His patients are delighted when they find a solution to their headaches, earaches, neck aches, dizziness, fainting, pain behind the eyes, difficulty swallowing, clicking, and locking jaw problems. Many of these problems can be related to jaw problems. And in many cases, the lower jaw is not in the correct position in relation to the upper jaw, which causes muscle spasms with resultant painful symptoms.

Dr. Rondeau works closely with other healthcare to try and resolve these problems for patients. He believes that in most cases, when several practitioners are working together, the results are better for the patient. He has personally trained more than 24,000 dentists throughout his career.

He is also the seminar creator and author of Early Orthodontic Treatment for Children.
