Testimonials From Our Patients Mean The World To Us: Hear More From A Patient Like You

At Center for TMJ & Sleep Solutions NW, our passion is helping patients find relief from the symptoms of TMD, or temporomandibular joint disorder, and sleep apnea. Our goal is to help patients live a pain-free life that they can enjoy to the fullest. Many first-time patients can’t remember the last time they were able to enjoy the foods they love or had a great night’s sleep. We see a number of patients each year who have been to countless medical professionals and have remained undiagnosed, misdiagnosed or left with lingering symptoms and discomfort. We do our best to help each patient, and it warms our hearts when we receive feedback that our treatment plan has changed the lives of our patients. We are so thankful for the recent Yelp review we received regarding a patient’s experience receiving TMD treatment. It lets Dr. Kushner and the team know that they are truly helping improve the lives of patients who may have felt helpless in the past.
