Chester, NJ -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/07/2014 -- Recurring headaches, teeth grinding at night, and jaw aches are the common symptoms of malocclusion, also known as bad bite. Previously, Dr. Gaudio would try to explain to his patients what happens when teeth are misaligned, but it was often difficult to maintain their interest, or for them to fully understand the condition without the help of visuals or models. Now, Dr. Gaudio uses BiteFX to explain easily and clearly what happens with teeth that do not align.

BiteFX was developed to make it easier for patients to understand malocclusion and for doctors to present information about it to the patient.

Dr. Joseph Gaudio of Gaudio Cosmetic Dentistry, Chester, NJ, has undergone advanced training in malocclusion therapy and the BiteFX system, and is firmly committed to helping patients who suffer from a bad bite. He incorporates new technology in combating the effects of a bad bite by making use of a digital program based on animations, making it easy to understand the cause of the problem. "The BiteFX system clearly shows the type of treatment required to eliminate any inflammation and the excruciating pain that goes along with malocclusion," states Dr. Gaudio.

Dr. Gaudio comments, "The BiteFX system makes it much easier for me to be able to decide what treatment will work best for my patient; the reasons for malocclusion differ from one person to another and BiteFX simplifies the process of reaching a diagnosis." Some of the treatments used for misaligned teeth are braces, dental splints, and/or retainers to correct the position of the teeth. The removal of a tooth or teeth may be required where there is overcrowding. "Sometimes we can simply reshape the teeth to bring them into proper occlusion," explains Dr. Gaudio. More problematic malocclusion may require wires or plates to stabilize the jawbone, and in severe cases, surgery might be needed, which results in reshaping the jawbone.

"The causes of malocclusion are varied," states Dr. Gaudio. Scientists have proven that most malocclusion is hereditary. A cleft lip and palate is one of the birth defects that can cause malocclusion. There are other causes, of course, such as children sucking their thumb, using a pacifier or using a baby bottle long after it should have been given up.

One time oral cancer was thought to be an old man’s disease, usually someone who smoked and probably drank heavily as well. Today, oral cancer victims are getting younger, even though many don’t smoke, chew tobacco drink or have diabetes or HIV. Because of this, Dr. Joseph Gaudio is using new technology for the early detection of oral cancer.

Chester, NJ -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/20/2014 -- The Oral Cancer Foundation (OCF), states that close to 43,250 Americans will be diagnosed with oral or pharyngeal (throat) cancer this year. It will cause over 8,000 deaths, killing roughly one person per hour, 24 hours per day. Of those 42,000 diagnosed individuals, only slightly more than half will be alive in five years. This is a number that has not significantly improved in decades. With statistics like these, Dr. Gaudio calls for action, "I want all of my patients to come in and have the OralCDx test done as soon as possible. The earlier we catch the bad cells, the better chance we have of saving lives."

Recently, a painless way of testing suspicious spots inside the mouth was developed that utilizes a little brush that collects a sample for a computer-aided microscope examination. The test, called OralCDx, used by Dr. Joseph Gaudio has been shown to be more effective than traditional visual inspection. OralCDx has assisted in helping prevent thousands of instances of oral cancer by means of locating harmful cells years before they may cause any harm.

Oral cancer appears as red, white, or white and red patches. Dr. Gaudio says, "Whenever these patches are able to be seen by the naked eye, this ordinarily indicates the cancer is in a late phase. OralCDx permits me to detect possible oral cancer in its early stage, when oral cancer remains quite treatable."

Another obstacle to early discovery is the advent of the HPV 16 virus, contributing more to the incidence rate of oral cancers. Now we're seeing that the younger generation is being affected because of the HPV 16 virus. "And so what it does, is it affects the mucous of the mouth, affecting change to the cells that become cancer," states Dr. Gaudio.

About Dr. Gaudio
Dr. Gaudio is a current member in good standing of the American Dental Association, the New Jersey Dental Association and Tri-County Dental Association. Dr. Gaudio recommends the OralCDx screening be done annually on all adults.
