What We Offer
We offer a comprehensive range of evidence-based, non-surgical treatments for facial pain, jaw disorders, and sleep-related conditions.
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders affect the jaw joint and surrounding muscles, causing pain that can radiate to the face, neck, and head. Symptoms include jaw clicking, limited mouth opening, headaches, and earaches.
Our specialists use a comprehensive, non-surgical approach including splint therapy, physical therapy, and targeted injections to restore function and relieve pain.
Learn moreObstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a serious condition where breathing repeatedly stops during sleep. Left untreated, it increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
We offer custom-fitted oral appliances as an effective alternative to CPAP therapy, helping to keep the airway open and restore restful sleep.
Learn morePhotobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular repair, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. It is a safe, non-invasive treatment with no side effects.
Dr Joseph Ryan is a leading researcher and clinician in PBMT, and is the current President of the Australian Medical Photobiomodulation Therapy Association.
Learn moreCustom-fabricated oral appliances are precision devices worn during sleep to reposition the jaw, protect teeth from grinding, and maintain an open airway.
We design and fit a range of appliances including stabilisation splints, mandibular advancement devices, and night guards tailored to each patient's anatomy and condition.
Learn moreIn some cases, carefully selected medications and supplements can play an important role in managing chronic pain and sleep disorders. Our clinicians take a conservative, evidence-based approach to prescribing.
We consider the full picture of your health before recommending any pharmacological intervention, ensuring treatments are safe and appropriate.
Myofascial trigger points are tight knots within muscle tissue that cause localised and referred pain. Trigger point injections deliver a small amount of anaesthetic directly into these points to release tension and provide lasting relief.
This treatment is particularly effective for jaw, head, and neck pain associated with TMJ disorders and bruxism.
Learn moreTherapeutic Botox (botulinum toxin) injections are a highly effective treatment for overactive jaw muscles. By temporarily relaxing the masseter and temporalis muscles, Botox reduces clenching forces, relieves pain, and can prevent further tooth damage.
Results typically last 3–6 months and the treatment is quick, safe, and well-tolerated.
Learn moreUnderstanding and modifying the behaviours that contribute to jaw pain is a critical part of long-term recovery. We educate patients on posture, parafunctional habits, relaxation techniques, and self-care strategies.
This empowers patients to take an active role in their own healing and reduces the likelihood of symptom recurrence.
Featured Treatment
For patients who struggle with CPAP alone, combining it with a custom mandibular advancement splint can significantly reduce required pressures, improve comfort, and achieve better treatment outcomes. Learn more about this specialist approach.
