I've had an absolutely wonderful experience being treated by Dr. Alex for TMJ! I was going on 5-6 years of horrible jaw pain and night time clenching - tried so many different mouth guards, masseter Botox, and nothing worked. Finally, I did a consultation with Dr. Alex and she recommended DTR to rebalance my bite, and it has worked wonders for me. It has taken several months but has been so easy and painless, and I started noticing results almost immediately.

Dr. Alex and her staff are so thorough at explaining everything and made me feel so comfortable during every visit. Dr. Alex also has a very holistic approach to treatment and pays great care to your progress and symptoms throughout the treatment. I could not recommend her practice enough!

I highly recommend anyone experiencing TMJ pain to see Dr. Alex and her team! From the consultation to my handful of sessions doing DTR, I was treated with care and like family. Everything was explained in great detail, and I could tell the team genuinely wanted me to feel better. I went from having TMJ pain flare up every so often to constant pain before seeing Dr. Alex. After my first session I already noticed an improvement.

A handful of sessions later and I feel like a new person. I rarely take pain medicine and don’t have a daily pounding headache from my TMJ pain. I was nervous at the start but I am so glad I decided to put my faith in Dr. Alex and her team.

I was suffering from terrible jaw pain and made an appt. to see Dr. George at the recommendation of a colleague. Dr. George prescribed DTR Therapy. Honestly, I was a bit skeptical, but also desperate for relief! I'm so glad I trusted Dr. George! I had improvement after 1 session.

After 3 sessions I was completely pain free. It's been almost a year and the jaw pain has not returned. Cannot say enough good things about Dr. George and her staff. Everyone is friendly and kind. They really go above and beyond to make you comfortable. I am so thankful I made that initial appointment!

I would highly recommend Dr. Alex George and her staff. I had a locked jaw due to TMJ and from my first call to the office, I was treated well. The office was closed on the day that I called, but my call was answered and I was scheduled as quickly as possible. They were even able to move my appointment up a few days. The office is welcoming and everyone is very friendly and knowledgeable.

From day one they were up-front and transparent about the costs of treatment in the initial two hour consultation. I’ve been to the office 4 times in the last two months and am on track with TENS therapy and am having a dental appliance made that I will wear for 3 to 6 months. Then I have a few decisions to make on how I want to proceed once my bite has been corrected. I am already feeling a lot of relief from pain. Dr. George is extremely qualified and good at what she does.

She took a lot of time with me today to ensure I understood everything and that the impressions she took for my dental appliance were done correctly. I highly recommend this specialist and her staff. You can tell they are all on the same page, know what they are doing, get along well. and treat their patients very well!
