Our temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is the hinge joint that connects our lower jaw to the skull and allows us to open and close the mouth. This joint can become inflamed because of numerous medical reasons and cause chronic facial pain, limited mobility, and fatigue. There is not one right solution for every case of TMJ disorder.
There are those who occasionally grind their teeth and do not need treatment, but others can develop a severe habit that can cause serious damage to their teeth and jaw. Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, can be so damaging that over time some people wear their teeth down to tiny stumps and need to have a full-mouth restoration with crowns, bridges, root canals, dental implants, or possible dentures.
Dr. Gentner has undergone training at the Dawson Academy, a distinctive training facility for dentists focusing on dental occlusion, TMJ issues, and complete esthetic restorative dentistry. Be sure to inform Dr. Gentner of any chronic pain such as headaches, neck aches, or jaw pain as these are also signs of a possible misaligned bite.

Best dentist I've EVER had, and I've had alot of dental work in the past starting at a young age. Dr Gentner and her staff went way beyond to make sure my anxiety didn't spark and I had absolutely no pain. I have finally found a place to continue on with all my dental needs. Thank you all so very much, from the bottom of my heart.

Dr. Gentner is a fabulous, knowledgable dentist. Her office is state-of-the-art, even BEFORE the recent upgrades! The staff is friendly and efficient, and the hygienists are real professionals. Dr. Gentner has the rare quality of making ME (at least) feel comfortable in the dentist chair, which I think is where most people really do NOT want to be.

I had a few fillings done by Dr. Gentner but they all had to be re-done the following year due to issues (I had my previous dentist fix them since he started taking my newer dental insurance). She also uses Cerec crowns that are made right there in the office for convenience but unfortunately they do not last long. Mine only lasted two years and she will not warranty it, now I am stuck with the bill since the insurance won't pay again within 5 years. I'm giving the office 2 stars since it is nice and clean and the staff is normally helpful (unless of course you want a warranty on dental work).

Absolutely a fantastic family dentist. Dr. Gentner and her staff use state of the art equipment and it is never a surprise at our scheduled clinics when there is new equipment, providing better dental care that is timely and high-quality. In addition, those same tools are always lay-person friendly, allowing patients to understand and participate fully in oral health decisions. She also actively recommends high-quality individuals for orthodontic and peril-dontal or oral surgery needs. The office staff is understanding of the sometimes high-cost of dental care and work well with insurance providers

Dr. Gentner and her staff are amazing! I always feel at ease during all appointments, whether it's with a hygienist or need treatment with the assistant, I am always comforted. Dr. Gentner offers many treatment options and her technology is very up to date. The administration staff are all super friendly and very easy to work with before and after appointments. I highly recommend Gentner Family Dentistry!

The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I actually enjoy my visits to the dentist. The mouth cancer screening puts my mind at ease and I know I am getting great care and the most up to date technology. The staff answers all my questions and makes sure that I am comfortable during any procedure. I feel like making sure I am happy is a goal they strive to achieve. Laurie Blackmer
