OSB Testimonials

"On the 16 Sept. 2007 I came to Dr. Whitley. I have fibromyalagia, and my pain levels have been about 9/10 over a period of years. He fitted me with a temporariy bottom mouthpiece. I immediately felt some relief, and by the next day my pain was down to about 4/10….every day I get more used to the mouthpiece and my pain is down to 1/10"
"….I am so thankful for the opportunity to walk with this mouthpiece and be free from pain. I have had a minimal amount of pain tablets over the last 10 days"

"I have known my husband for ten years…his nasal allergies were so severe and disgusting that even our closest family members refused to dine with us.
My husband was a very heavy breather and often at night accompanied by snoring his breathing became even more labored. He would wake up in the night with sneezing fits and would take small terry cloth towels to bed with him, as a box of tissues would not last him one night. During the day if he sat for even a few minutes he would fall asleep. On more than one occasion he fell asleep driving.
Over the years he has tried every allergy medication available none of which alleviated his allergies and most of which aggravated an already irregular heartbeat and raised his blood pressure to dangerous levels.
When Dr. Whitley mentioned that he thought my husband's problems could be alleviated with a dental appliance I was extremely skeptical. However, within a few minutes of being fitted with the appliance his sinus congestion cleared and I saw him breathing through his nose for the first time…As the appliance was being fitted it would be taken out of his mouth a few minutes and the congestion would immediately return…"
"The first night he slept with the appliance in his mouth he had the first restful night sleep he could ever remember…"
"Shortly after having the appliance installed our family went swimming usually my husband would lay by the pool and sleep but once he began sleeping through the night he suddenly had energy to play in the pool with our 8 yr old daughter. When we left the pool that day she said ‘I can’t believe Daddy played with me today, he never does that!
My husband’s decision to be fitted with the dental appliance has not only improved his health but has been a blessing to our whole family."

"…[Dr. Whitley] has known my physical and emotional conditions throughout the years…my "driven" need to control and fix situations, and my growing ‘phobias’.
" In late Oct. 2007 after numerous panic attacks, episodes of rapid and irregular heartbeat, spikes in blood pressure and restless nights of sleep. I set up an appointment with Dr. Whitley to discuss how OSB could help me. Within days of wearing OSB, I was able to sleep through the night…waking more refreshed and energetic. I found myself calm and facing events of the day with confidence. My blood pressure stabilized and my general practitioner’s diagnosis of being ‘locked in adrenaline overdrive’ seemed to subside.."
" ..I continue to be amazed with what OSB has done for me, I am so grateful to Dr. Whitley and his wonderfully positive and supportive staff. They have affirmed me as a unique creation of God and have encouraged me to live each day with hope and renewed strength."

" I was diagnosed with MS in Jan. 2002, the past 5 years have been constant fatigue and sleepiness. I have also had a persistent numbness in my left hand…. Within 30 min of first placing the appliance the numbness in my hand reduced about 50% and that night I had the best sleep I have had in years.
"….. The past 9 or 10 mo. have been great. No new symptoms, the longest lengthh I have gone without new ones. OSB has been a truly positive experience! Thanks Dr. Whitley!"

"At age 57, I thought my life was slowly slipping away. For months I was tired and ‘rundown’ and had no energy whatsoever. I was eventually got to the point where I was not resting well at night and would wake up in the morning feeling tired. Along with the constant fatigue and snoring, I began experience headaches, slurred speech, memory loss, loss of coordination and balance, increased heart rate, and tremors in my hands and legs. I thought these symptoms were all part of the aging process and tried to accept them…"
"After 4 visits with my family doctor, an emergency visit by paramedics, a visit with a cardiologist and 3 EKGs, a thallium stress test, a chest x-ray and a CT scan of my head, all I found out was that my cholesterol was up. According the medical community they could find nothing wrong.
I was fortunate to find a licensed OSB practitioner who explained the cause of just about every symptom I was experiencing. He fashioned an appliance that I have been wearing for 3 weeks now, and have not felt this good in a long time. I sleep through the night and wake up totally refreshed. My heart rate is down and normal. I have had no more tremors in my arms and hands. And my balance and coordination has returned to what it used to be…."
"It is with profound sense of appreciation that I say thank you Doctor Whitley. Thank you, for all your effort and the OSB system."

"I visited Dr. Whitley for the first time in November of 2007. I knew immediately that I had chosen the right dentist for me. His belief in Mercury-Free dentistry and his Holistic approach to my health were things that I had been hoping to find in a dentist for a long time. We immediately established a great rapport.
        I was given some information on Oral Systemic Balance (OSB) during my first visit with Dr. Whitley. I had not heard of it before. It seemed to be mainly targeted at people who had trouble with snoring. I already used a CPAP for that, but I decided to look the information over when I got a chance. Upon reading the brochure, watching the DVD and skimming through the book, I became interested. I did some more research on the internet. I noticed that I had most of the symptoms and discomfort that the program reported to be helpful in lessening or eliminating. So, I scheduled an appointment for an OSB consultation. Dr. Whitley explained everything to me and was very patient when I asked many questions. He took time with me to make sure that I understood and was comfortable.
     After waiting just about 2 weeks, my OSB "Balance" appliance was ready, and it was time to begin having it custom fitted just for me. Dr. Whitley said it may be a few weeks before I would experience the full benefit of the appliance, but I began to notice some positive effects right away. I began to breathe more easily and could feel the oxygen flowing through my body. I stopped having to clear my throat constantly. I was more able to breathe deeply through my nose where before I had to take most breathes through my mouth.
     Within just a few hours, my constant neck and shoulder pain began to subside. This was something I had lived with for over 8 years and for which I thought there was no relief. I felt exhausted. Dr Whitley said to expect this because the amount of unnecessary adrenaline would soon be greatly reduced in my body. I would be able to really relax for the first time in a great while. That night I slept soundly through the entire night, only having to get out of bed once to use the restroom.The next day I had another appointment with Dr. Whitley. I was excited to report all of the positive effects. Dr. Whitley reported that my heart rate and blood pressure were also closer to normal; also explained by the reduction in adrenaline. I still felt exhausted, but by the next day, things were still getting better.
      After restfully sleeping through the entire night, I awoke with a new feeling of energy and mental clarity which I had not experienced since my mid twenties. Normally, I would yawn and sigh almost constantly throughout the day. But not today, these annoyances were drastically reduced to my surprise. I was very pleased. I noticed a reduction in cravings for both sweets and tobacco as well. I hope this will eventually lead to some much needed weight loss. I felt less anxious and stressed. I hope all of these benefits will continue to multiply in the future. I now look forward to better health, less pain, less stress over little things, and a calmer, happier, more peaceful life."
