What is My Role in Your Patient's Health Care?
As one of just a few American Board of Orofacial Pain (ABOP) Board-Certified specialists in Ilinois, I focus on diagnosing and treating four major categories of disorders in the head and neck regions:
For fellow general dentists, many TMD and sleep apnea cases can be effectively treated within the scope of the general dentistry practice. My role is to help diagnose and treat the cases that extend out of the scope of your general dentistry practice.
For fellow specialists, in patients with symptoms of unknown origin (ie toothache or burning sensations with no obvious etiology) or residual post operative symptoms (ie numbness, pain), my role is to help with diagnosis and treatment.
I look forward to collaborating with you.
