There's a better way to treat chronic migraines and headaches
If you suffer from chronic migraines, you know how difficult they are to effectively diagnose and treat. The TruDenta system of diagnosis and treatment was developed to help uncover and resolve the frequently-overlooked causes behind your chronic migraines.
Uncover the hidden causes of your chronic pain
The TruDenta diagnostic process uses the latest technology to closely examines the nerves, muscles, and ligaments that surround the head, neck, and jaw to find any signs of the inflammation and chronic stress that can lead to constant headaches.
Get safe and lasting treatment from the doctors who understand your pain
If examination shows that your headaches are actually being caused by musculoskeletal problems, we can help. All TruDenta doctors have years of experience as dental professionals working with the delicate musculature of the jaw, neck, and head—a perfect background to implement TruDenta's process of progressive rehabilitation and physical therapy for the damaged joints and stressed musculature that cause chronic headaches.

Dr. Scott Stewart
A "good old Midwestern kind of guy," I started my life journey in Pawnee City, Nebraska. Graduating from the University of Nebraska Medical Center with my DDS degree in hand, I proceeded to follow up with internships in Ohio and Tennessee. Colorado became my permanent home in 1982 and after some years as an associate, I established my own practice in Lakewood, CO.
About 10+ years ago, I began to take my practice in a different direction with emphasis on healthier, more “biological” solutions for my patients – I stepped outside “traditional”. It has taken me “outside the box” with respect to dentistry as I learned it. In doing so, I have discovered the world of “alternative medicine” and a very different way of thinking, learning, understanding and applying dentistry! I have met and learned from incredibly educated, skilled and knowledgeable minds – dentists, doctors and other professionals who seek a healthier, “back to basics”, “back to nature” way of helping their patients. The technology available to us today is awesome, but it needs to be applied in a way that makes sense, enhances/promotes health and does no harm.
What this means to my patients is that I provide options that may not be available in every dental office - laser dentistry (awesome), laser periodontal therapy, biomimetic tooth restoration, ozone therapy, and mercury-free dentistry with mercury-safe protocols. I also have completed extensive education and training in the making of top quality cosmetic dentures for helping patients with difficult denture problems and I am trained and certified in the placing of Mini Dental Implants. For those of my patients who want excellent cosmetic dentistry, I completed training with the Las Vegas Institute in the “art” of beautiful teeth!
My ongoing education and training is an integral part of me as a dentist – it will only stop when I do! One of my most incredible moments came when I co-wrote "Inside Job" with a team of top dentists and when published, the book reached best selling status in three categories!
My next incredibly exciting moment came recently when I completed training and certification to become a Board Certified Naturopathic Physician (NMD)!!! Alright!!!
Personal
Outside the office, I am a card carrying member of the Masons (32°), happily active as a Shrine clown (get to put a face on and act goofy) and I am a member of the Professional Colorado Clown Association. I fly fish when I can, play some golf (my wife beats me), and I am an inveterate reader. In June of 2013, I married Stephanie, the love of my life and a hygienist of 38 years experience – she keeps me honest – the Lord and life are good! I love what I do and I would love to share it with you! I have a great office crew, a small homey kind of office and we are very easy to be around! Come on in and spend a few minutes with us – we may just have what you are looking for!

The TruDenta Process
Bite Force Analysis
Our proprietary T-Scan technology allows our doctors to precisely assess your mouth and jaw for dental imbalances during opening, closing, and chewing, right down to the amount and direction of the force exerted by each individual tooth.
Range of Motion Analysis
Dental imbalances often cause chronic muscle tension and inflammation, which can in turn limit your head and jaw movement. Our doctors measure and monitor the movement range of your head and jaw to more accurately determine the most effective treatment plan for your symptoms.
Headache History Form
Headaches can occur for many different reasons — in order to find the source of your headaches and determine if the TruDenta treatment process will be effective for you, your TruDenta doctor will speak with you in detail about your past headaches and their specific symptoms.
Muscle Exam
Your TruDenta doctor will locate the latent trigger points in your face and neck that restrict motion and contribute to jaw imbalances — these knots of tense muscle are often missed without a thorough examination.
Head Health Questionaire
Jaw or head trauma can cause a variety of hidden changes in the jaw, neck, and face that may later manifest as stiffness, pain, or headaches. By cataloging any possible sources of damage, your TruDenta doctor can more effectively focus your treatment plan.
Ultrasound
Therapeutic ultrasound treatment returns circulation to chronically sore and strained muscles by providing gentle heat and increasing blood flow, while the targeted sound waves break up scar tissue and deep adhesions.
Trigger Point Therapy
Manual trigger point therapy decreases and eliminates pain and tension in latent and active trigger points by breaking up muscle knots and increasing blood flow in order to decrease inflammation.
Electrocurrent
Our transcutaneous microcurrent stimulation therapy reduces muscle spasms and their accompanying pain through low-level electrical signals. It also decreases lactic acid build-up and encourages healthy nerve stimulation.
