A lot of my patients grind their teeth at night.

Now, they ask why you know I can't control it?

I'm asleep

I don't even know I'm grinding.

But sure sometimes they wake up with pain

in their jaws, pain in their teeth

and it can cause a lot of sensitivity in teeth.

It can also cause notching by the gum line.

And also, of course wear on the teeth

to make them shorter and shorter.

Now why do people grind their teeth at night?

Well, as you know at night when the body sleeps and rests

and recuperates that's when all the healing occurs.

And that's when the body the subconscious moves in

and it starts taking over the healing of the body.

Now if the jaw joint or the teeth

are actually forcing the jaws to sit in the wrong place.

The body intuitively knows this.

And while she's sleeping it tries

to get the jaw in the right alignment i.e.

get rid of the teeth that makes them sit in the wrong place

and grind them away.

So that's what happens.

And that's why people grind their teeth at night now some people also

find they clench you know unconsciously during the day

because basically there's so much tension built up

and the body knows instinctively that perhaps the jaw

joints and the muscles are sitting in the wrong place

and the teeth are what's controlling that.

So the body wants to try and get rid of that.

So what is in effect happening is a muscle - tooth war.

Okay and the clenching and grinding is a response to that.

And how do we stop it?

Well, there are lots of different ways.

So tune in and we'll talk about that next.

Why Do People Suffer From TMJ? - Dr. Vicky Ho - Duration: 2:45.

Hi, this is Dr. Vicki from Smile Design Studio.

People often ask me, why do people suffer from TMJ?

Well, basically the TM joints

are controlled by the bite in a way

if you have a look where our bite fits is where those muscles have

to sit and where those muscles sit the jaw joints have to sit as well.

Now if the teeth of the bite was offset, for example,

if the bite was a little bit crooked

and it then was rotated, and the jaw was slightly

rotated one way because the teeth

fit that way, then what it would do

it would cause an uneven muscle tension between this side

And this side.

As a jaw joints rotate around or say

if the teeth were not level horizontally and they were on a

cant and you noticed some people have crooked smiles.

They have a cant.

It would also cause an uneven muscle tension on both sides.

What this then results in is the muscles have

to work one side more than the other to keep the body upright

or what also happens is when you've

got an even muscle tension on both sides of the head.

It causes the head to tilt and when the head tilts

then we compensate by tilting our shoulders

the other way to keep us upright.

As a result, it curves.

The whole spine and it can cause symptoms

all the way down the back.

So a lot of people who have TMJ in the wrong place caused

by a bad bite will also then have scoliosis

of the neck and neck problems.

And then they can suffer headaches as well.

Now if the jaw joints are too far back i.e.

if the bite is more retrusive and it makes

the jaw sit further back than it really wants to.

It puts pressure on the ears.

So it can then cause ear symptoms and vertigo as well.

So these are the reasons why a bite can then

cause not so much joint problems sometimes it causes clicking

but then all of the symptoms that are

associated with TMJ syndrome.

And that's why when we look at helping people

with long term, who suffer from headaches

neck pain, ear problems, vertigo you would often

have to look at the position of the jaw as well.

So this is what we do with Neuromuscular Dentistry.

If you would like to learn more about Neuromuscular Dentistry

and how we can help you.

Why do Jaws Click or Lock? - Dr. Vicky Ho - Duration: 2:59.

Hi, Im Dr. Vicky from Smile Design Studio patients

always ask me, why do my jaws click or pop?

And why do they lock sometimes?

Well, the jaw joint is a very complex system.

And it's a very unique joint in that it doesn't just

stay in the joint.

It actually comes right out of the joint in order

for the jaw to move.

So this joint not only rotates on its pivot

but it actually comes right out and back in.

And it can actually go from side to side.

So when you open really wide the jaw joint

comes right out of the joint.

And when you go from side to side

it actually pivots there and all along with these movements,

there's a piece of cartilage that

sits right in between the joint and the fascia

and this cartilage is like a little cushion

and it's a lubricating cushion that comes with it.

And completely smooths the whole motion.

So that allows us to chew, talk and function properly.

Now what happens is sometimes when teeth are worn down.

Okay, when we grind out teeth.

The teeth are worn down and we bite up further than

where we used to with shorter teeth.

So as we bite up further here the jaw, of course,

as it rotates up it rotates back as well.

And now it puts more pressure on the back wall of the joint.

And what happens then some people then get ear problems.

They get ear blockages or tinnitus

and it can also lead to neck pain.

But what happens then when it's actually banked up

against the back wall the cartilage that

was in the center of it is no longer in the center.

More at the front.

So when it's at the front.

It then blocks the smooth opening of the jaw

because it's almost acting like a doorstop.

So the jaw has to click back onto this cartilage, which is

that popping or clicking sound.

And then after that it can freelly move again.

So this is usually caused by the jaw joints sitting

in the wrong place and it's not aligned with the disk.

That's within the jaw.

Okay and this is then related to where the teeth fit,

which causes the jaw to sit further back.

So it might be in people who have really retruded teeth.

It might be in some people who have had braces

and had 4 teeth taken out everything pulled back

and then therefore, the whole jaw joint

sitting further back or could

be also in people who have ground their teeth down.

And now they're biting further up and therefore

rotating the jaw backwards.

So these are the reasons why jaws click.

Now if you'd like to find out how we treat

that please give us a call.

Why do YOU teach? - Duration: 3:39.

First we asked a few teachers...why do you teach?

Alyssa Thrasher - McLane Elementary School: I love teaching because it gives me a purpose.

I can come in and I can see my kids and no matter where I'm at in my day everything just gets a little bit better.

Paul Rae - Olympia High School: I became a teacher largely because of the influence of my seventh and

eighth grade math and science teacher Mr. H. When I saw what Mr. H did for a living and

the impact he had on me personally as well as all my friends, that really spoke

to me and I knew kind of right then that's what I wanted to do.

Tracy Pulsipher: Jefferson Middle School - I just want to always be able to give kids options. You know that's my thing like whatever

path you take, that's your, but I want you to have a choice.

I don't want you forced down a path because you don't have options.

Education, background, knowledge, things like that. Someone gave me those options and I'd like to give those to someone else.

Marianne Lang: Olympia High School - Well it's fun! Every day it's different.

Time goes quickly and it's important, but most of all it's inspiring.

Kids impress and inspire me every day. So, it's just a great place to be.

Joan Moore: McLane Elementary School: Why do I love teaching?I love the innocence of the kids that come in

especially those young ones that are just brand-new to school. I love the kids

that get involved in the literature, we do battle of the books, and the excitement

that those fourth and fifth graders have anticipating that happening. I love

working with my staff. The young ones coming in all fresh and bubbly and know

everything, and all of us with experience who still think we know everything, but

we don't. I love the newness of it. I love the oldness of it.

I love the traditions and I love this community here at McLane is just amazing.

Kristen Costello: Olympia High School - I love teaching because I love to work with the students and help

them find their best selves and I love that moment when they

realize that they have learned something and that light bulb comes on and they're

so excited and I feel like their youth keeps me younger than I feel and younger than I am.

Rachel Diane Brock: McLane Elementary School - I love teaching for many reasons.

One of the reasons I love teaching is because I just love the types of relationships

that I can build with students each and every day from the fall to the spring.

I also love the growth that students make from fall to spring on their test scores

and they also are able to track their progress throughout the year and it's

really exciting because you see them light up when they see how much growth

that they've made and that really keeps me in teaching.

Anthony Brock: Olympia High School - I became a teacher because as a student I deeply wanted to have teachers who looked like me leading

my classroom and that is something that I wanted for the next generation and so

I'm really passionate about that work, it's something I continue every single day. I love recruiting new teachers.

I truly believe that this is the world's greatest profession.

So it's a joy to work in the Olympia School District and I think everybody should become a teacher honestly!

Then we asked our students to describe their teachers in a single word. This is what they said...

Fascinating.

Personable.

Amazingly cool.

Enthusiastic.

Funny.

Friendly.

Exciting to be around.

Role models.

Safe.

Providing opportunities.

Helpful.

Patient.

Amazing.

I was going to say kind.

Influential.

Caring.

Impactful.

Inspirational.

A big part of your life.

Why Do Students Copy Sources? - Duration: 2:24.

- [Instructor] So why do graduate students

and other researchers copy source text?

There are a number of reasons why people

copy sources in their academic writings.

Time pressure or haste,

the need to get something like the literature review

done at the last minute,

poor synthesis skills,

or the inability to put together a coherent argument

from the diverse voices and arguments in one's sources,

lack of independent critical thinking skills,

poor information management,

poor English language skills,

which limit alternatives for rephrasing

the material from one's sources.

This is something I mentioned in the video

on non-native English speakers.

Lack of confidence in one's own analysis or opinions,

lack of confidence in one's own writing ability,

ignorance of disciplinary expectations,

and finally, just not caring.

Now I would like to talk about

a concept called patchwriting.

I think this concept helps give context

to students' struggles with working with their sources

and trying to synthesize these sources

in their own writings.

The writing researcher, Dr. Rebecca Moore Howard,

coined the term patchwriting to refer

to how writers cobble together a patchwork quilt

of copied text and their own original text.

Dr. Howard defined patchwriting as copying

from a source text and then deleting some words,

altering grammatical structures,

or plugging in one synonym for another.

She argued that patchwriting signals not a student's

absence of ethics, but rather his or her struggle

to understand a text.

You can think of patchwriting as

incomplete paraphrasing or synthesis.

It is important to note that patchwriting lies

on a continuum between complete originality

and blatant obvious plagiarism.

Writers who patchwrite situate their writing

in that gray area between plagiarism and paraphrasing.

Most academic writing is really a mixture

of paraphrasing and synthesis and original writing.

Howard says that from her experience

writers patchwrite not to be deceitful necessarily,

but because they are not yet skilled

at synthesis and paraphrase.

More importantly, and perhaps controversially,

she argues that they are learning the scholarly

idiom by sort of trying on its language.

In the next video you will see

some examples of patchwriting.
