BioPAK
Joint and muscle analysis: how your jaw actually moves, measured before a diagnosis is made.
Motion, joint and muscle, together.
BioPAK includes joint vibration analysis, which listens to the jaw joint as it opens and closes, and electromyography, which measures how the jaw muscles work at rest and in use. Accelerometer sensors, the kind used to detect turbulence on airplane wings, pick up what no mirror or manual exam can.
“Time and motion is the fourth dimension in physics. It’s what determines longevity.”
