I recently went thru treatment for some jaw pain and popping, and had great results! I didn't have a referral at first but I was looking around online to see if I could find a professional to check out the problems I was having. You start off with a consultation and go thru several exams and testing which I felt were comprehensive and convinced me to pursue the 3 month treatment. The downside is that insurance may not cover the visits and treatment regiment, but it was definitely worth the money. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for TMJ treatment. The staff and doctor are also very friendly and knowledgeable

Dr Sainsbury, Victoria, THANK YOU! As a fellow colleague who found herself in urgent need of help with her child, I cannot express enough gratitude or say enough about this office's mission and compassion! Although Dr Sainsbury doesn't usually see patients on Fridays, after Victoria relayed my story to him, he offered to come to the office to see my child and help in any way he could. And that he did! Dr Sainsbury was personable, clearly very knowledgeable and clear on his diagnosis and recommendations. He helped put my teen at ease immediately. Although in this case the diagnosis did not fall squarely into the TMJ realm, the attitude was not one of "sorry can't help you, bye" as is a little too often in healthcare. Dr Sainsbury clearly had a deep understanding of not only his field but the associated fields. He was sympathetic and offered pain relief services as well as take home products, self care advice and suggestions as to next steps. Everything a patient in pain (or parent of one!) would hope to find in their treating clinician! Willing and able to help! Thank you!

Staff is professional and courteous. Dr. Saisbury is hands-on, very easy to talk to and explains. Which was non-existent with the previous doctor. Thank you.

I'm genuinely surprised by the negative reviews because my experience has been nothing short of positive. Right from my initial conversation with Victoria, I was met with a pleasant encounter. My first appointment was scheduled promptly, and I was eager to be seen. Having endured jaw pain for a significant portion of my life, which has recently escalated to affecting my sleep and overall quality of life, I was relieved to have found them. The entire staff exudes friendliness and warmth, making it easy for me to ask questions and gain valuable information. Dr. Sainsbury's authenticity shines through, and I believe he is genuinely invested in helping me. While the cost is substantial, it's worth noting that my PPO insurance isn't accepted, which is more a reflection on insurance companies not recognizing TMJD as a covered condition. It's unfortunate, but it doesn't diminish the positive experience I've had at the TMJ and Sleep Therapy Center.

I had an excellent experience with Dr Sainsbury. He explained to me and showed me why I was experiencing jaw pain. He answered all of my questions and he put together a 90 day treatment plan. His office staff was friendly and very helpful. I highly recommend TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre.
