Dr. Brad Sainsbury and his medical assistant did a very thorough examination and very clearly explained to me the issues I am struggling with. They offered an alternative to the splint I was provided that was changing my bite. Thanks to the care they provided me with, I am now on the way to getting my jaw pain issues resolved and getting my teeth realigned. The staff was extremely personable as well.
