Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

I am a dentist but for tmj issues that perplex me I will often refer to David Austin DDS MS. He himself has recovered from tmj problems and specializes in this area. His diagnostic exam is very extensive. He will sometimes use ultrasound which has helped my patients.He is located by Riverside Hospital. If you already have a splint, you may not need a new one, just your old one adjusted better for your situation.

has your dentist suggested you see an orthodontist? Sounds like they could give you an idea on treatment. Good luck.
