Patient Testimonials

I was diagnosed with TMJ at 10 years old and over the years have been through multiple plastic mouth night guards. I was sent to Dr. Urbanek early this year to try and help with my TMJ. When I started my treatment with Dr. Urbanek I was miserable. I had a headache almost daily, shoulder pain, neck pain, ringing in my ears, jaw pain so bad that I couldn’t eat some days and tingling in my fingers. After wearing my splint As directed, I now have no headaches in the mornings and my neck and shoulder pain along with the ringing in my ears is almost completely gone! The tingling is better and I can eat what I want without hurting! I highly recommend Dr. Urbanek and his device for TMJ .

I came in with dizziness and ringing in my ears. I had been told back in 2009 by another doctor that there’s no cure, that they could not do anything for the ringing in my ears it’s just getting older. I was sent to Dr. Urbanek by my ENT for TMJ. I needed a new mouthpiece. I came in April 2019 and I learned about the Urbanek device. I have improved each time I came in for my checkups. My experience with Dr. Urbanek and his staff has been wonderful. I’m getting better each day. The ringing in my ears is slowly disappearing. My headaches have gone. It’s great! Thank you to all at Dr. Urbanek’s office.

Dr Urbanek’s device is amazing! I have struggled with TMJ pain for 30 years or more. Four months of using the appliance and I am pain free. No more pain when chewing and I can eat what I want, apples, corn on the cob etc, . But best of all is no more jaw pain. It is definitely worth the effort. My sister recommended Dr. Urbanek. She had the same great results.

I have suffered with jaw pain on and off for 20 years, with a significant increase in pain which brought me to Dr. Urbanek. I was provided a TMJ Splint and within 3 weeks I feel so much better. My pain has improved by 80 percent. The office staff is friendly and helpful. Dr. Urbanek is detailed and concise. Would 100% recommend

I have been having jaw problems for about 4 years. It started off with just pain when I opened my mouth, then it got to where it was hard to get my mouth opened all the way. Eventually it got to the point where I couldn’t open my mouth all the way at all, only half way. I came to Dr. Urbanek and he gave me the splint, and after wearing it for just a week I was able to open my mouth all the way. 4 months later and 100% of the pain is gone.

An inflamed jaw joint added to the stress of life. Even 10 years after TMJ surgery, the pain was only increasing. The Urbanek device has helped me accomplish my goal: pain management. I know there is a long road ahead and more to do, but the Urbanek device has been the biggest stepping stone, my biggest win in my journey yet. Thanks, Dr. Tony for your help, sense of humor, and helping me reach my goals.

For years I’ve had an array of symptoms ranging from headaches to stiffness in my neck and shoulders to pain in my jaw and more. I thought there might be the chance I was experiencing some jaw issues, but after speaking with Dr. Urbanek he confirmed it. He noticed my jaw joint was inflamed and recommended I purchase a mouth guard. The device is definitely not cheap, but it’s been the best long term investment I’ve made in a long time. After just a few months of wearing the device, my symptoms have almost all disappeared. I’m completely satisfied and so excited to simply live my life without all these issues literally on my jaw joint.

I dealt with symptoms for over 12 years including headaches, pain, dizziness, jaw locking, tingling fingers and more. Doctor after Doctor misdiagnosed me and placed me on medication, physical therapy and test after test. After mentioning my struggle in passing to my Dentist she referred me to Dr Urbanek and he discovered my jaw growth problem that causes these symptoms. After using the device for just two months I already noticed a significant reduction in my pain and symptoms have decreased. Thanks Dr Urbanek!

When I first came to see Dr.Urbanek I had horrible pain in my left ear area. I was also having popping and my jaw would feel out of line. I had headaches and neck/shoulder pain. After I had my device within a week the pain started going away. I am now 2 months out and have no pain at all. I am so thankful my dentist recommended I see Dr. Urbanek.

Throughout my life, I’ve had bad migraines and, recently, I have developed significant jaw pain, ear fullness, and neck pain. This splint changed my life! It helped me tremendously with my pain and now, my symptoms are almost gone! If you are considering getting this splint, I highly recommend you do!

I came to Dr. Urbanek after suffering with ear and jaw issues for over a year. I could barely hear out of one ear, it stayed “full” feeling, and nothing seemed to help. I also have had jaw issues for at least 10 years, audible popping when eating, pain, locking up, etc. The most recent issue was that I could not open my mouth fully. I also had numerous symptoms that I did not know were related to my jaw, including waking up with my right hand completely numb a lot of morning and having issues sleeping at night. Once I received the device, the first thing I noticed was a decrease in the fullness in my right ear and my ability to hear plainly out of it. The next was the ability to open my mouth more widely. I’ve been wearing the device for several months now, over this time span I have only woke up with numb hands twice (which is a tremendous decrease), my jaw only pops/locks if I yawn widely (and not every time), my jaw pain is basically nonexistent, and my ear issues are probably 85% better. This device has definitely been worth every last penny, and the almost 2 hour drive to see Dr. Urbanek!

I was in terrible pain before I came to Dr. Urbanek,he has helped me tremendously with the device he prescribed me .

About 6 years ago, I started experiencing headaches, pain in neck, fullness in ears, constant sinus infections, and some jaw discomfort. I had been to doctor after doctor, but could not find any answers as to why these issues were not going away. I had taken all the antibiotics and steroids known to man, but they only helped temporarily. I was then referred to Dr. Urbanek. After consulting with Dr. Urbanek, we came to the conclusion that my issues had stemmed from a car wreck. No one (including me) had even thought that these issues could have came from an accident. Now after 6 weeks of treatment, I am feeling so much better. I am not experiencing any of the symptoms that I was feeling before. Thank you Dr. Urbanek for what you do!

I started with my right side jaw hurting when I chew. It also hurt when I yawn. I came to see Dr. Urbanek He done a fitting for my mouth and I had to wear a guard for twenty four seven for two months. It has really helped my jaw as for eating and yawning also sleeping I didn’t have the pain anymore. It was a little different with this guard in my mouth as for talking but I gradually got used to it. Thanks

Had jaw pain for 6 years and never realized it could be cured! I had always assumed it was just a part of life and everyone had to deal with it. Boy was I wrong! Dr. Urbanek and his device really changed my life and my symptoms have gone away full fold! Forever grateful for him and his staff.

During my entire adult life, I constantly suffered from headaches, neck pain, and back aches. I thought it was just part of life and took ibuprofen daily. Today, I am 100% better. I have no pain, no headaches, and I don’t depend on ibuprofen to get through the day. I never would have thought all these symptoms were a result of my TMJ issues. I thought in order to fix my TMJ problems I would have to get surgery. Dr. Urbanek’s device has changed my life for the better and I can’t be more thankful. This pain is no longer a part of my daily life and this has greatly improved my quality of life. This was the best money I’ve ever spent.

I was nervous but the doctor and his staff made me feel very secure in everything. And I would recommend them to anyone

A couple months ago I had jaw locking, neck pain, headaches, arm numbness, and muc more. I didn’t know what was causing it. My parents researched around and thought it might be TMJ (my grandma also has it). We came to Dr. Urbanek and he told me that it was indeed TMJ. I got the device which totally cleared most of not all of my symptoms in just a little over a month.
