😊 Hi, I’m Dr. James Segulyev, DDS, and helping patients who struggle with TMJ/TMD, facial pain, headaches, jaw tension, and bite problems has become a very meaningful part of my practice.
Since 2001, I’ve continued to pursue advanced education in TMJ health, bite function, airway health, and minimally invasive dentistry. I’m genuinely grateful to practice in this specialized area of dentistry and to have several non-surgical treatment options available today that can help us look beyond symptoms and better understand why a patient is hurting.
Finding the Right Approach for Each Patient
TMJ treatment is never one-size-fits-all. My goal is to evaluate the jaw joints, muscles, bite, and overall chewing system, then determine the approach best suited to each individual.
One option is MAGO Therapy (Maxillary Anterior Guided Orthotic). MAGO helps relax the chewing muscles, reduce inflammation, and guide the jaw joints toward a more stable position. It can also provide valuable diagnostic information as we determine what is contributing to the dysfunction.
I have also been having tremendous success with the Gelb appliance, and I’m very excited about what I’m seeing with many of my patients. Rather than focusing only on the front teeth, the Gelb supports the back teeth and encourages healthier joint positioning while considering the airway and entire chewing system. For the right patient, this comprehensive approach can be incredibly beneficial. 🌿
Because breathing and jaw development can also be part of the picture, I may incorporate my airway-focused training and Vivos® treatment when appropriate.
My goal isn’t simply to quiet TMJ symptoms. It’s to understand the underlying imbalance and work toward greater harmony among the joints, muscles, bite, and airway.
If you’re living with chronic jaw or facial pain, headaches, clenching, grinding, or other TMJ symptoms, I would be honored to help you explore your options. 💙
Sincerely,
Dr. James Segulyev, DDS
