2020 Atlas Orthogonal Humanitarian of the Year

It is with great pleasure that Dr. Louis Vita accepted the prestigious award of 2020 Atlas Orthogonal Humanitarian of the Year.

It has been Dr. Vita's distinct pleasure and honor to be extensively involved with the advancement of Atlas Orthogonal treatment and its correlation with TMJ treatment protocols. He comments, "The most important benefit has been and continues to be helping patients receive beneficial treatment that betters their lives and treats the cause of their problems rather than simply treating the symptoms." Dr. Vita has worked side by side with Dr. Angelo Colavita, Atlas Orthogonal Specialist, for the past 15 years to accomplish these goals.
