WHAT OUR PATIENTS SAY
“I didn’t think anything could help my headaches, neck, and back pain! But when Dennis administered his laser treatments, stretching, and magic massage, my pain was greatly relieved. My jaw pain, clicking, and popping has also improved a lot. Dennis is a miracle worker!”
— Jordan Martin
“I was referred to Dennis for a misaligned jaw (TMJ) due to clenching, popping, clicking, and sometimes locking up. He not only fixed my jaw, he eliminated my headaches, improved my posture, and got rid of my tightness and pain in my neck. I can’t believe how much better I feel!”
— P. Conrad
“After a few treatments I was completely pain-free and able to continue working as a dental hygienist without the excruciating pain I was experiencing. He also showed me posture exercises and stretches for self-care. Dennis was a life saver!”
— Brooke Taylor, Dental Hygienist

• PATIENT QUESTIONS
FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS
Will physical therapy help my TMJ?
Yes, most TMJ/TMD cases improve with conservative, non-invasive approaches including manual therapy, exercises, posture correction, and behavior changes.
Do I need an MRI or dental splint?
Imaging or splints are rarely first-line. We assess and refer if structural or dental factors are suspected based on your examination findings.
How quickly will I feel better?
Many patients notice reduced tension or pain after the first in-clinic treatment. Consistent home work yields steady improvement in 2–6 weeks.
What if my pain is from grinding or bite issues?
We coordinate with dentists and oral surgeons when occlusion or severe intra-articular problems are suspected.
Is a referral required?
No referral needed. Book directly for your same-week exam.
Does your specialist treat cervical spine and headaches too?
Yes. Dennis Lacalle treats the full cranio-cervical complex — jaw, neck, skull base, and headaches — as an interconnected system, not in isolation.
