Prolotherapy
Restore Joint Health with Prolotherapy
In dentistry, prolotherapy can be used to treat temporomandibular disorders (TMD), which can cause pain and restricted movement in the jaw. For patients with TMJ, prolotherapy can help strengthen ligaments and tendons and reduce inflammation, leading to improved function and decreased pain.
How is Prolotherapy Done
We inject a substance into our patient’s affected ligaments or tendons. By design, this will cause some inflammation in the tissue, but this injection and the inflammation it causes, stimulate the body’s own healing process to produce new tissue that can strengthen the damaged ligaments and tendons that are causing the issue for our patients.
How Many Prolotherapy Treatments Do I Need?
It has been our experience at Dentistry by Dr. David/The Bolton Center for Dental wellness, that the time required to complete a prolotherapy treatment cycle can vary depending on the specific condition being treated and each individual patient. Typically, a course of treatment involves multiple injections spaced out over several weeks or months that are applied to the same area each time. Patients undergoing this treatment, generally may require four to six treatments to gain the full benefit and we will work with you to map out a schedule to accomplish this goal and accommodate your schedule.

Beautiful experience. My third child, was my first with ties. Dr. Kaplan took his time showing me images of my sons ties and explaining them to me so I understood them more. He also made the atmosphere very comfortable! We had all 3 ties released (tongue, lip, and cheek) done in about 10 minutes. Dr. Kaplan checked in with me about 5 minutes after the procedure and explained everything to me about follow up appointments with lactation and chiro and how to massage my babies mouth post-op. Highly recommend for infant tie issues!

Dr. David is by far one of the most compassionate dentists I have ever met. Dr. David and her team have a thirst for knowledge and are constantly furthering their education. I would highly recommend the TMJ & Sleep Centre of New England if you have any TMJ/Sleep needs.

I have only been for initial exam and consultation, so this review is for that. I love the office. They have great technology and a nice ambiance if you can believe it. Pretty rare to find a dentist with nice views but I had beautiful trees to look at outside the window while I sat in the chair. The tech and dentist were so caring and really listened to me and took their time to make me feel at ease. I have had some less than savory and even traumatic experiences at other dentists , I can say that I feel very comfortable and trusting with Dr David. I think she is a brilliant doctor who really cares about people and looks at the whole picture , not just your teeth. I’m happy I found her and ready to start my treatment plan. This is by far not the cheapest dentist but I only have one set of teeth, so trusting myself to the best.
