Maxillary Bone Motion, Dentistry, and Zero-Second Brain Cycle
This essay explores the concept of maxillary bone motion, dentistry, and a zero-second brain cycle.
The maxillary bones expand and contract in tandem with the brain. For many patients, dental procedures involving the upper jaw can restrict their brain cycle to zero seconds. Even though everyone is not adversely affected with a specific procedure, dental professionals need to check every patient’s brain cycle.
Anatomically, the maxillary bones are connected to the smaller sinus bones, the sphenoid bone, the large cranial bones, and the sacrum. When dental forces tighten the maxillary bones, a domino effect can restrict the entire craniosacral fascial system.
The Brain Cycle Measurement Can Be the Best Evaluation Tool
The brain cycle measurement can be the best evaluation tool.
The brain cycle is the number of seconds for the brain to normally expand and contract. The brain cycle is the first thing that I check on a new patient visit because it tells me how well the craniosacral fascial system is functioning.
A good brain cycle is around the 200-second range, where the brain is expanding 100 seconds and contracting 100 seconds. But most new patients in my practice present with a zero-second (or close to it) brain cycle. I either feel little or no motion.
