Ever cry from the pain? I did. Could it be done without medication? Yup!! Dr. Shirazi - you rock!! It was a welcomed and refreshing experience. I had several years of pain which intensified over time. Shoulder and neck pain that turned into headaches that turned into (at times) debilitating painful migraines. During this time I sought various treatments from magnesium supplements, gummies to various prescription medications to therapies (massage, physical, chiropractic and acupuncture) did relaxation/stretching - all were VERY limited temporary relief. At times I had to call out of work or miss out on gatherings because I was in so much pain. I could usually sleep off the pain, but when pain crept in to disrupt my sleep, I was at my wits end. Sleep deprived and pain - not a good combo. Then came Dr. Shirazi with a diagnosis and a treatment plan in place, I had immediate relief within a week!! A WEEK! Fast forward to seven months later - pain free, uninterrupted sleeping, no headache or migraines! Thank you Dr. Shirazi for helping me when I was about to give up on ever finding a pain-free life!

Wonderful experience! Started TMJ treatment in pain, dislocated jaw and could barely open my mouth. Now I am pain free, have a normally functioning jaw and can move forward with my life!

Let me preface: I have been grinding my teeth every night for as long as I can remember, and I clench my jaw unintentionally all day (and likely all night) long. I’ve had multiple night guards and have ground through almost all of them. I have had headaches all my life and have woken up with jaw pain more days than not. One day I was stretching my jaw and heard a pop. I didn’t think much of it, but over the next two weeks my jaw kept hurting (more than usual) until finally I couldn’t eat without feeling intense pain. After being relegated to liquids and being in excruciating pain if I opened my jaw too wide or touched my teeth together, I knew I finally had to get help; but of course it was a long holiday weekend, so I couldn’t see my dentist until the following week. I went to urgent care (who didn’t do anything) so I went to the ER to see if they could help, but they said it was a dental issue so they couldn’t help either, however, I was lucky enough to have an ER nurse who told me she experienced the same thing and went to Dr. Shirazi for TMD. She warned me that he didn’t take insurance and it would be a bit costly, but after doing more research, I couldn’t find any TMJ special

Before I met Dr. David Shirazi, I struggled significantly with snoring, which was not only a disturbance for my partners but also a personal health concern. Diagnosed with low-mild sleep apnea, I faced daily headaches and haziness, and my new marriage was under strain. From my very first appointment, Dr. Shirazi's approach was a breath of fresh air. His exceptional bedside manner and insightful analysis revealed a severely deviated septum and other anatomical issues contributing to my snoring. What impressed me most was his decision against recommending surgery. Instead, he provided an oral appliance that revolutionized my sleep quality. Now, I can confidently say I know what a good night's sleep truly feels like. The clinic itself, though small, is a warm and welcoming environment. The attentive team makes every visit comfortable, creating a sense of familiarity and care. It was more than a clinic; it felt like a community where even the milestones of staff members were shared and celebrated. Dr. Shirazi's approach is refreshingly educational and holistic. He focuses on informative, opioid-free treatments, highlighting his commitment to patient well-being beyond conventional me

I have been struggling with TMJ for years. My dentist did not have a solution and neither did an orthodontist. I saw a review for Dr Shirazi’s practice and made an appointment I was impressed on how attentive and professional his team is. They did a very thorough exam and Dr Shirazzi came up with a plan. When he installed the first appliance my jaw pain immediately went away as did the headaches I got from hats and sunglasses. I’m very confident that his plan will bring permanent relief.

I am so lucky to have met Dr. Shirazi! He is truly an expert in functional orthodontics work! I had severe headaches, neck & shoulder tension, trouble sleeping & lower back pain! Only after two weeks of using my applieances I feel drastically better! No headaches, barley aches & pain & now I sleep so much deeper! Dr. Shirazi is a very caring, kind & thorough clinician that is expert in this field. I highly recommend him as he can change your life! His staff are also super nice & pleasant to work with! I am blessed to have met him & very grateful!
