Dr. Susan Lunson, DDS

Professional Statement

I have practiced general dentistry for over 30 years and during that time have developed a love for treating patients who suffer with TMJ disorders and snoring and sleep apnea.  Because we as dentists are taught so little about the two subjects in dental school, it was necessary for me to take additional training to become proficient in the skills needed to diagnosis TMJ problems and treat them and sleep disordered breathing.  I have hundred of hours of continuing education in both TMJ and Sleep, including residency training in Sleep at UCLA.  I now limit my practice to the diagnosis and treatment of TMJ disorders and the treatment of sleep apnea and snoring in conjunction with local sleep physicians.  If you or someone you know has headaches or jaw pain or grinds their teeth; or if loud snoring or unrefreshing sleep is a problem at your house, I can help.  You'll see a real improvement in the quality of your life.
