Meet Dr. Charles Ferzli, DDS

Dr. Charles Ferzli, DDS

He has recently passed the Diplomate written examination for the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine. Since 2001, he has helped several hundred patients find relief from their symptoms related to TMJ disorders.

Keep in mind that health-related treatments are not guaranteed, and that includes TMJ treatments. However, according to studies by Brown & Gaudet, 88% of 2,104 patients have been successfully treated from jaw-related headache treatments.

Dr. Ferzli is proud to say that he has a similar success rate.

BREATHE

How Jaw Function and Breathing Are Connected

Many people living with temporomandibular joint disorders experience daily jaw pain, headaches, muscle tension, and clicking or popping in the jaw. These symptoms are often ignored or masked with pain medication rather than addressed at the source. Poor jaw alignment, clenching, teeth grinding, and airway restriction can disrupt healthy breathing patterns, placing constant strain on the TMJ and surrounding muscles.

SLEEP

Signs of TMJ and Sleep Disordered Breathing

Difficulty falling asleep, waking frequently during the night, dry mouth, snoring, and daytime fatigue are common indicators of sleep-disordered breathing. Many patients also experience teeth grinding, worn or broken teeth, earaches, neck pain, and a sense of fullness in the ears while sleeping. When sleep quality suffers, the body cannot properly recover, allowing TMJ pain and inflammation to progress.

HEAL

Address the Root Cause of Chronic Pain

TMJ dysfunction presents differently for every patient. Symptoms may include digestive problems, acid reflux, anxiety, depression, difficulty concentrating, high blood pressure, or periodontal disease. You do not need to experience every symptom to benefit from treatment. Healing begins by identifying and correcting the underlying causes affecting jaw function, airway health, and the nervous system instead of simply masking pain.

LIVE

Relief From TMJ Pain and Better Sleep

If you answered yes to many of the common TMJ and sleep-related symptoms, you are likely in the right place. Chronic jaw pain, headaches, poor sleep, and daily fatigue do not have to be normal. With comprehensive TMJ and airway-focused care, patients often experience improved sleep quality, reduced pain, increased energy, and a better overall quality of life.
