About

Tallahassee TMJ Center is a specialized dental clinic focusing on the diagnosis and treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders and sleep apnea. Led by Dr. Bruce A. Woodruff, the clinic provides non-surgical and appliance-based therapies for patients suffering from jaw pain, headaches, and related symptoms. Dr. Woodruff's practice is uniquely focused on these specific conditions, offering a high level of expertise to patients in the Panhandle region of Florida.

Tallahassee TMJ Center, located at 2880 Capital Medical Blvd STE 1, Tallahassee, FL 32308, is a dental clinic dedicated to treating temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders and sleep apnea. The clinic is led by Dr. Bruce A. Woodruff, who is noted for his specialized training in this field. He completed a medical residency in TMJ and sleep apnea appliances at Shands Hospital's Parker E. Mahan Facial Pain Center in Gainesville, making him one of the few dentists in Florida with this level of specialized training, and the only one in the Panhandle region. The practice focuses exclusively on helping patients who suffer from symptoms associated with TMJ dysfunction and sleep apnea. TMJ disorders, also known as TMD, can manifest as a variety of painful symptoms including jaw pain, headaches, earaches, and clicking or popping sounds in the jaw. The clinic's approach to treatment is primarily non-invasive, utilizing oral appliances such as splints and night guards to alleviate pain and restore proper jaw function. These devices are custom-made to prevent teeth clenching and grinding, which are common causes of TMJ pain and strain. In addition to TMJ treatment, the center offers oral appliances as an alternative to CPAP machines for patients with sleep apnea. Dr. Woodruff and his staff are committed to providing personalized and compassionate care, working to relieve the suffering of their patients and improve their quality of life through specialized therapeutic solutions. The center's website, http://www.tmjtallahassee.com/, provides further information on their services and Dr. Woodruff's background.

I have been seeing Dr. Woodruff for 5 years now for an appliance that stops me from snoring at night. He is very professional, thorough, and personable. He solved my problem and I completely recommend him.

I award one star to Dr. Woodruff's office only because his office does, as advertised, accept Capital Health Plan. The promise of insurance coverage is the trap that lures patients in the door. My resulting out-of-pocket costs from his improper care far exceeded any insurance savings. I highly recommend you think twice before seeking help for TMJ problems here.

I saw Dr. Woodruff recently for jaw pain I have been having over the last 6 months and it turns out I grind my teeth at night. The mouthguard and jaw exercises did the trick! No more pain! His staff was great and I never had to wait more than a few minutes.

I did have to wait a few weeks to see him because he is very popular. I guess he is the only Dentist with any TMJ training. Best of all, I only had to pay one copay!!

Dr. Woodruff has been treating my sleep apnea with an oral mouthpiece. I haven't been able to wear cpap and my Pulmonologist recommended Dr. Woodruff and losing wieght. The appliance has stopped my snoring and sleep apnea. Success! Fortunately, the device was covered by my insurance. I am very happy with Dr. Woodruff's office.
