TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Cleveland

The TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Cleveland is a dedicated clinic focused on providing comprehensive diagnosis and non-surgical treatment for Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) disorders, craniofacial pain, and sleep-related breathing disorders for patients of all ages, from children to adults. The clinic is led by Dr. Kristina Wolf, a Cleveland native with a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) and a Master of Science (MS) in Applied Anatomy from Case Western Reserve University School of Dental Medicine, where she also teaches. Dr. Wolf's personal struggles with TMJ and sleep issues fueled her passion and expertise in these fields. The center emphasizes a holistic approach, seeking to identify and address the root causes of patients' conditions rather than just managing symptoms. They treat a wide range of issues including chronic headaches, facial pain, neck pain, jaw pain, snoring, and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Their services include a comprehensive evaluation using various diagnostic tools such as hard and soft tissue evaluation, range of motion assessment, skeletal structure evaluation, oral airway evaluation, muscle, tendon, and ligament palpations, directed imaging/radiographs, neurological testing, and volumetric analysis of the airway. Treatment plans are highly personalized and may include orthopedic appliance therapy (like custom orthotics and oral appliances for sleep apnea), nutritional counseling, physical medicine/laser therapy, regenerative medicine (such as PRF injections and prolotherapy), migraine relief (including SPG blocks), myofunctional therapy, palatal expansion, and airway orthopedic & facial development, particularly for pediatric patients. They also offer sleep diagnostics and emphasize early intervention to prevent future problems. As part of a larger network with over 70 centers in 7 countries, the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Cleveland benefits from extensive combined experience and a proven system for diagnosis and treatment. Patient testimonials frequently highlight significant improvements in pain relief, reduction in migraines, improved sleep quality, and overall enhanced quality of life. The clinic also collaborates with other healthcare professionals to ensure integrated care.
