Steven Floerchinger MD, FACS

“I have suffered from TMD since I was diagnosed in my 20s during medical school (I’m now in my 60s). I have had major surgery on my jaw and jaw joints and seen multiple specialists over the years. I was referred to this practice by my general dentist.

Dr. Kushner and her team have done more to help me with this problem than any other professional I have seen. She is thoughtful, caring, and compassionate, and her team echoes these same traits.

When I first established care with this office, I was convinced I would never be comfortable or be able to eat normally again. The treatment plan and appliances I have been using have been nothing short of miraculous. Although I will never have a normal bite again, I have attained a level of comfort and function that I am very happy with and should serve me well for the rest of my life.

I cannot recommend this office enough and offer a rating of 10 stars out of 5!! One bit of advice I would give to my fellow TMD sufferers: don’t let anyone tell you this is “all in your head”. This condition is very real and can be very debilitating. The only way TMD is “in your head” is in the fact that the TM joints attach to the base of your skull. Good luck to all of you!!”

I've been going here for a few years and they have really helped with my TMJ, sleep and migraine problems! Everyone is so friendly and really listens which has been hard to find these days. I accidently came an hour early and they were still able to squeeze me in and get me out of there before my appointment even started and they were so nice about the mix up. I would recommend them to friends or family!!

The entire staff/ team was very professional, very knowledgable, and very skilled in their own "skill sets". My appointment was on time, the process was from start to finish very comforting, and Dr. Mara and her team answered all the questions I had, ( to the best of their knowledge)- I highly, highly recommend them to everyone whom may need their services in the future. By the way, don't be thrown off by the fact that they all look so young, and beautiful:)- their brains, experience and knowledge is what will " seal the deal...... OKAY THIS NOW IS MY FOLLOW UP VISIT TO PICK UP MY DEVICE IN ALL CAPS- THE LAST POST I WANT TO LEAVE BECAUSE I HATE TO SOUND REDUNDANT. THE ENTIRE TEAM/ CLINIC ARE SO LOVELY TOP NOTCH CUSTOMER SERVICE. THEY ARE ALL INTELLIGENT, AND COMPETENT. THEY DON'T MAKE ME FEEL LIKE THEY ARE WELL VERSED IN A " SCRIPT" KIND OF WAY. THEY ACTUALLY CAN PIVOT AND ANSWER LEGITIMATE QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE WITHOUT MAKING YOU FEEL LIKE THEY ARE OVER BURDENED, OR RUSHING YOU...AND THERE IS NO EYE ROLLING. JUST A BONA FIDE ALL AROUND GREAT TEAM FROM THE FRONT DESK TO DR. MARA, EVELYN, SERENA, AND VICTORIA AND DAISY. . WELL LET ME CLOSE BY SAYING I'VE BEEN TO 35 COUNTRUES AND 42 STATES. THIS IS THE BEST IN HOUSE/ CLINIC(AL) EXPERIENCE I'VE HAD IN TWENTY YEARS,...THUS FAR.
