At Advanced Sleep and TMJ Solutions, we are dedicated to providing advanced, non-invasive treatments that promote natural and effective healing for our patients. One of the innovative therapies we offer is High-Intensity Laser Therapy (HILT), a powerful and scientifically validated treatment for TMJ disorders and facial pain.
What is DEKA HILT Therapy?
Developed by DEKA, a global leader in laser innovation for over 40 years, HILT therapy utilizes patented laser pulse technology to provide deep, targeted relief. The laser stimulates anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and biostimulating effects, often yielding noticeable results from the very first session.
HILT therapy is an ideal choice for patients seeking to:
– Alleviate trigger point pain
– Promote biological healing in joints, tendons, ligaments, and muscles
– Reduce symptoms of tension headaches
– Decrease inflammation and accelerate the healing process
Reparative & Regenerative Therapy
DEKA HILT therapy supports tissue repair and regenerative healing for both superficial and deep chronic facial lesions. It is particularly effective for addressing common facial pain conditions and TMJ dysfunction. This therapy is comfortable and encourages the body to restore its natural biological functions.
How HILT Works: The Science Behind It
Photomechanical Effect
DEKA HILT Therapy is distinguished by its unique hallmark of creating a mechanical wave that significantly impacts cellular behavior. This wave, made possible by DEKA’s proprietary pulse, stimulates the extracellular matrix (ECM). As a result, it activates key cells involved in healing connective tissues and joints, including fibroblasts, osteoblasts, and chondroblasts.
Photochemical Effect
The laser energy is absorbed by the mitochondria, which increases ATP (cellular energy) and powers cell repair and regeneration.
Photothermal Effect
A slight, controlled increase in tissue temperature enhances collagenase activity, which aids in the healing and remodeling of damaged tissues. Consequently, these effects make DEKA HILT more effective than traditional low-level lasers, providing deeper penetration and broader coverage.
Conditions Treated with HILT
HILT Therapy is a safe and effective treatment backed by more than 50 scientific publications and validated clinical protocols. It’s highly beneficial for:
- TM Joint Degeneration (e.g., Osteoarthritis, Osteoporosis)
- Soft Tissue & Musculoskeletal Conditions (e.g., muscular pain, tendinopathies, trigger point pain)
- Tissue Repair (e.g., post-surgical sites, wounds, bruises)
Why Choose HILT at Advanced Sleep and TMJ Solutions?
We utilize the DEKA SmartPerio laser system, which provides better relief and healing potential compared to traditional treatment methods. With High-Intensity Laser Therapy (HILT), we can effectively and comfortably treat a wider range of conditions, often minimizing the need for medications or invasive procedures.
If you are experiencing discomfort related to TMJ or facial pain, please schedule a consultation with us today to find out if HILT is the right option for you.
