Most of our patients have been to many other doctors looking for answers before they visit us. They have completed lots of tests and are not sure if anyone will be able to help them. That is why we start by listening. We gather insights from your experiences and available records. Then, we work with you to develop a practical path forward. Our goal is to provide short-term relief while moving towards a long-term solution to your TMJ / TMD pain and dysfunction. Together, we can get there.
The first step in any TMJ treatment plan is to determine what is actually causing the pain. Determining this answer will help us figure out the right solution. We’ll be able to find the perfect position for your jaw, and then Dr. Lim will help you achieve it.
