    “Dr. Hnat is the best TMJ specialist around! He was very detailed and focused on finding the source of my problem and finding a treatment plan to help find a solution. I would give him 10 starts if I could!”

  • Lauren Bradley

    “Dr. Hnat helped me sooo much. I suffered for at least 25 years with TMJ and all the headaches and pain related to the condition. He took such care and was so precise in everything he did to help me. He fabricated an appliance that I continue to wear every night. I opted for the PRF injections and it was well worth it. I now have zero jaw pain and I can hardly believe it! So many thanks to Dr. Hnat and his wonderful staff!”

  • Carol McCullough-Kuchar

    Dr Hnat is amazing. He saved my life by providing me with a sleep appliance that is keeping me able to breathe. I was in a horrific accident caused by a tractor trailer driver in road rage. My jaw was broken, along with everything else. Once that happened, I stopped breathing 300 times a night. The Dr fitted me with a jaw appliance that helps me breathe. Thank you for saving me.
