Private Patients
PAIN
Head, jaw and neck pain very often has a dental occlusion and masticatory (chewing) muscle origin. This is often misdiagnosed and mistreated with aggressive, irreversible dental procedures, or, narcotic pain killers that leave the patient unable to function normally due to the severe side-effects of the medication. Pain affects one out of four patients and can have a profound effect on their physical, mental and spiritual well being. Recent advances in the understanding of pain have lead to new treatments and pain management techniques for acute and chronic dental and facial pain.
The private practice of Dr Howard Katz, the creator of many of the protocols for Botox and anesthesia treatments that are used around the world, specializes in these areas and offer a wide range of treatment options. Dr Katz is also accredited with inventing and developing FDA approved drugs in the field of anesthesia. Dr Katz teaches these skills to doctors and dentists around the world.
His comprehensive treatment plans combine traditional and complimentary medicine approaches. He seeks to empower patients by educating them about their conditions and identifying the best methods to relieve pain, promote healing and restore maximum levels of function. Additionally, he has extensive knowledge of the latest pain management treatments and techniques.
Dr Katz believes in a holistic and mechanical approach to treatment. He does NOT incorporate the use of prescription narcotic pain-killers and anti-depressants in any of his treatment protocols.
