    I am a parent of a child with Tourettes and I just wish I could get him some help or relief from his tics. I noticed after he started going to a dentist in 3rd grade and had several Pulpotomy's that he started jerking his wrist and then he started facial tics just one day at school.  I have been reading about Dental devices for Tourettes being used, it really makes me wonder if having these dental procedures done at such a young age had something to do with disturbing the Dopamines since I have also read that Nerve Pulp is essential in nourishing this area of the brain. I would really like to get an educated answer for this. Thank you if you respond.
