Sleep & TMJ Solutions

Sleep & TMJ Solutions, led by Dr. Jeremy J. Abbott, DDS, is a highly specialized clinic located in Rockville, MD, dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of orofacial pain, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, and dental sleep medicine, specifically obstructive sleep apnea. Dr. Abbott is a distinguished professional, residency-trained at UCLA School of Dentistry in orofacial pain and dental sleep medicine. He is one of the few dentists nationwide to hold diplomate status with both the American Board of Orofacial Pain (ABOP) and the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine (ABDSM). The clinic's practice is exclusively focused on these intricate conditions, meaning they do not perform general dentistry. Patients visiting Sleep & TMJ Solutions can expect a comprehensive approach, beginning with a detailed consultation and examination of the head, neck, and face. For sleep disorder patients, this includes a review of their sleep study and discussion of various FDA-approved oral appliances (the clinic utilizes 6-10 different types) to determine the most suitable option. They work in conjunction with certified sleep physicians to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. Dr. Abbott's expertise extends to managing complex cases of chronic jaw pain, headaches, and other related orofacial pain conditions, often stemming from issues like teeth grinding, misaligned bites, or injuries. The clinic emphasizes personalized care, understanding that each patient's needs are unique. They are committed to finding and treating the root causes of these issues, offering solutions like custom oral appliance therapy for sleep apnea and various therapies for TMJ discomfort, including potentially advanced treatments if applicable (though specific advanced treatments beyond oral appliances are not detailed for this clinic, the search results for sleep-tmj.com broadly mention PRF therapy for TMJ in other locations). The clinic prides itself on providing a comfortable and stress-free experience, accepting medical insurance to help with affordability. Dr. Abbott also lectures internationally and has authored multiple journal articles, contributing to the field of dental sleep medicine and TMJ disorders.
