“Highly Recommend!
I called around to a few Dentist yesterday trying to find someone to help me with my TMJ problem. I was told no one was able to help me until I called Doctor Steadman’s Office. The women at the front desk were exceptionally friendly and got me in a few hours after calling. When I got there everyone was so friendly and immediately solved my problem for me and provided relief. Doctor Steadman thoroughly showed me step by step what was wrong and answered any questions I had. I felt better right after leaving. I will continue to go to the Steadman Family Dentistry and HIGHLY recommend them!”

We Perform Thorough Exams to Find the Source of Your Pain
At Steadman Family Dentistry, we take an educated and detailed approach to treating TMJ disorder. During the initial exam, we will take models of your mouth and check your occlusal bite to see how your bite fits together, and to discover the source of your pain. We will then be able to make the adequate occlusal adjustments, provide muscle therapy, and create oral devices to alleviate pain and stabilize the bite.
