Send me a message, I’d love to hear from you!
In this episode of Straight Up With Steph, I sit down with Dr. Priya Mistry, also known as The TMJ Doc, to dive deep into TMJ and TMD. Dr. Mistry shares her journey from general dentistry to running a TMD-only practice and breaks down what every clinician (and patient) needs to know about this complex disorder.
We discuss:
- What TMJ/TMD really is and how it’s diagnosed
- The difference between a night guard and an orthotic
- Disclusion time reduction therapy (DTR) and why it’s a game-changer
- Self-care strategies for patients with TMD
- How sleep apnea, posture, and tongue posture tie into TMD
- What clinicians often get wrong about TMJ care
✨ Dr. Mistry also shares her insights on Botox, posture, and myofunctional therapy, plus where clinicians can learn more.
