The ideal patient for me is someone who has already been everywhere, seen every specialist there is to see, and has never gotten significantly better. I treat any Jaw, Head or Facial pain using the most conservative, non-surgical techniques known. Another ideal patient would be someone diagnosed with Sleep Apnea, or snoring, who cannot tolerate the CPAP.
