I really enjoy coming to see Dr. Maryam and team! The team (esp. Dr. Maryam, Lidia & Olga) are exceptionally warm, compassionate, calming, and so good at what they do. Not only that, I have made tremendous progress in my treatment in only 8 months - my jawbone is literally regenerating. They also have modern CBCT technology that allows you to see your scan results immediately, and Dr Maryam takes the time to thoroughly explain and answer questions. I highly recommend them and they deserve all the success in the world. Thank you Dr. Maryam and team! read more

Can't recommend Dr. Maryam and her wonderful team highly enough! I originally came in for TMJ treatment and migraines, and my husband was treated for his snoring/sleep apnea--both of us have experienced incredible results. From the very first visit, Dr. Maryam took the time to thoroughly explain the treatment process and made sure we felt comfortable every step of the way. The entire staff is professional, friendly, and truly cares about their patients. My migraines have significantly improved, and my husband's snoring has basically disappeared all together, making a huge difference in our quality of life!! If you're looking for an orthodontist who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and delivers real results, look no further than Dr. Maryam. Highly recommend! read more

We were initially sold on the sales pitch Dr. Maryam made that her gradual approach would help decrease the amount of time each girl needed braces down the line, might even eliminate the need for braces completely, and would also help with the girls' narrowed airways (she focused on this a looooot with X-rays) and TMJ syndrome (she again focused on this a looooot with X-rays). This is all well and good if you have unlimited time and money to spend 3-4 years and $7000 per child for the 2-phase treatment she advocates. We decided to go with the 2-phase plan, in the hopes that phase 1 would take care of most of the teeth correction. We wasted about a year and a half on Phase 1 for both our girls, with complicated retainers that spread the hard palate bones for about a year, then another few months of facial muscle trainers that were way too big for their mouths. They were so uncomfortable and pushed into their tongues so much that they couldn't sleep with the gadgets in their mouths. Both our girls have overbites, one of them much more prominent than the other. One girl also has teeth crowding. Dr. Maryam placed both girls on a 2-part treatment plan that first involved the retainers she invented then the facial muscle trainers. This took about a year and a half and $3500 for each girl. At the end of it, she wanted to start the braces on one of the girls who did not have enough correction with the 1st phase. So, it would be another year or two of braces and another $3500. Trust me. Just go the conventional route with a conventional orthodontist. Don't waste an extra 2 years and lots of extra $$$ out of pocket for these unconventional, unnecessary, ineffective, really uncomfortable gadgets that she is experimenting with on kids. On our girls, they were tedious and didn't work in the long run. They are also super uncomfortable and kept cutting into the girls' tongues and gums. We kept having to go back to the clinic to get the retainers adjusted so they wouldn't cut into their gums. They ended up being more uncomfortable than braces. Our kids HATED them. The whole reason we were willing to go along with the 2-phase plan was that we were trying as much as possible to avoid needing braces (phase 2) and all the pain and dietary restrictions that go along with them. Dr. Maryam gave us this false hope that phase 1 might succeed enough that the girls might not even need phase 2 (braces). She also downplayed how cumbersome and painful her inventions for Phase 1 would be. Well, she was wrong. Phase 1 turned out being even more inconvenient and painful than braces, and the girls still needed braces anyway at the end. We went along with her gamble, and we lost. Don't gamble with your time, money, and kids' discomfort. The funny thing is that Dr. Maryam said our kids shouldn't do Invisalign, because the Invisalign retainers are so easily lost or misplaced by kids. Well, so were the gadgets that she invented and pushed so hard for us to try. The retainers are sooooo easy to lose, and we had to pay for replacements a few times...expensive. Not worth it. Just get braces for your kid, and be done with it. I really wish we had just gone to a conventional orthodontist and done the braces 2 years ago, rather than this long drawn-out unconventional path that takes twice as much time and costs twice as much money. Apparently dental insurance only covers $3500 only once over the child's entire lifetime, so we have to pay the next $3500 for each girl out of pocket. We're now looking for a conventional orthodontist to get braces for our girls. We don't feel comfortable any more continuing with Dr. Maryam, just because Phase 1 was so expensive, painful, and ineffective. Our girls' teeth look exactly like they did 2 years ago--huge overbites. read more

Leaving this review to help others with TMJ to not have to go through the same unnecessary, extensive treatment that I went through. While Dr. Maryam is such a nice person, I don't recommend going to her for TMJ for a couple specific reasons: 1. Although her practice has "Orthodontics" in the title, she isn't an actual orthodontist. I wish I would've known this before my treatment because I would have never done it here knowing this is the case. After having braces as a kid, the last thing I wanted was to have braces again (& she doesn't offer Invisalign to fix TMJ). And I only want an orthodontist moving my teeth around, not a dentist. Her treatment caused me to develop an open bite that I'm now getting fixed with Invisalign (which is also fixing my TMJ). 2. My treatment plan was verbally explained to me in a very deceiving way. After paying a few thousand dollars for my treatment (which I thought covered ALL treatment costs) and 9 months of wearing a thick mouthpiece, I found out this way only for phase 1 and phase 2 would cost me over DOUBLE what I'd paid for so far. Not to mention the financial lady who works there was very rude when I was shocked at this additional cost. If you have TMJ and are considering going here, I highly recommend getting a consultation (or multiple) with real orthodontists first. I really wish I had done this to save myself money and months of wearing uncomfortable mouthpieces. read more

Dr. Maryam's combination of being EXTREMELY intelligent and EXTREMELY caring is exactly what you pray for when finding a new doctor. She treats me like her own son, and it truly means the world to me. She is anything but your average orthodontist, that's for sure! She's so intelligent that you'd think she'd gone to numerous medical schools for numerous disciplines - I tell my PTs about her and they're BLOWN AWAY with her level of knowledge. Not only is she an expert in all things TMJ, she really takes a holistic approach to healing her patients - explaining how the jaw is a structural and neurological "hot spot" that is crucial to keep (or put) in the correct spot. If you're unaware of the significance of the TMJ, even as it relates to other parts of the body, reach out to Dr. Maryam or do some google searches, you'd be very surprised as to how important it is. I also have another back issue that is unrelated to the jaw and she called her husband, who works in the medical field, to come check me out. I couldn't believe it. It still brings tears to my eyes that she's willing to go so far above and beyond the standard. UNBELIEVABLE! I cannot say enough GREAT things about Dr. Maryam, and I've seen well over 75 specialists over the past 10 years as I try to figure out my chronic pain nightmare - I have never met anybody even remotely like her. I truly wish more doctors would be like Dr. Maryam, she's a lifesaver. She really treats me like her own son. DO NOT HESITATE TO REACH OUT TO HER, YOU'LL BE BLOWN AWAY!!!!!!! Also, TMJ and neck are feeling great! read more

I was referred to Dr. Maryam B by my regular dentist. After a thorough evaluation and consultation, I was fitted for a night guard to protect my teeth from intense clenching/grinding and to alleviate my constant jaw pain. Within a few days I started to feel relief! Such a blessing to have a resolution to what was a chronic pain condition. I'd recommend anyone to this group! read more

In the process of fixing my TMJ. 3 months in and no more cracking or pain. Couldn't even open my jaw to eat a hamburger until I saw Maryam.

Dr. Marayam is the most caring doctor I've ever encountered. She cares about all of her patients and have personal relationships with them. It's been a pleasure learning from her and working with her. She's been able to treat my issues better than any other orthodontist or specialist. She's truly a specialist in her field. So far, my TMJ is gone, I no longer have vertigo, headaches or neck pain. Most importantly, my severely crooked jaw and underbite has significantly improved. She also provided excellent treatment for my sister. I can't thank Dr. Marayam enough for her care. read more

The possible is only possible when we make it so. You can do this. Fantastic doctors like Dr. Maryam can help. -- TMJ had taken over my life in such a way that I accepted that I'd never be able to drive again, cuddle with my wife, hold my children, or work again. After a long medical battle and almost 100k in out of pocket expenses, thoughts of defeat started to infiltrate my normally optimistic disposition. If you're reading this (while hating your jaw/neck/shoulder/back because looking down at your phone is one of many things that hurts like a MF), don't give up. If you feel like TMJ has taken over your life, you are not alone. I had dropped out of my MBA program, had no solid food for six months, went on disability for 2.5 years, saw other TMJ specialists, practiced self-care, got massages twice a week, chiropractic work, acupuncture, removed as many stressors (see: stressful family members) from my life as possible. All of these reduced my pain by maybe 25%. Basically I could kind of turn my head, but not for long. If a dollar could buy pain reduction, Dr. Maryam and her team provided the best value of anything I tried. Her custom splint, subsequent adjustments, braces to move my bite, and post treatment retainers easily reduced my pain by 50%. I know adult braces aren't super sexy, but they helped reawaken the nerves in my gums (connected to many jaw muscles) which had become completely atrophied. Please give her a call if you're looking for someone who does not price gauge, really listens to you, and is excited to be on your journey to better health. And if you're wondering how this long story ends: well, I'm eating granola on a Saturday morning and am infinitely grateful to be pain-free, working full time, and able to look down at this tiny ass screen without issue. read more

I've had TMJ for several years and had reached a point where I heard a loud **pop** and suddenly could barely open my mouth without having a lot of pain. I actually found Dr. Maryam's office after reading a negative review on another "TMJ Specialist"'s Yelp page warning not to go there. The reviewer sounded really knowledgeable about why the other specialist wasn't to be trusted so I reached out and asked her if she had found anyone trustworthy and she told me about Dr. Maryam! Right away Dr. M x-rayed me and was able to explain why I was feeling the way I did. I was in total shock that I finally felt I was being understood after being told by Dentist after Dentist that a night guard would solve my problems. The treatment process was not cheap, short, or easy. I'm not going to lie. But after 6 months of various stages and multiple visits I no longer have pain and can now eat like a more normal person. The staff at Dr. Maryam's office were all super kind and helpful. I got to know several of them over the time I spent and I truly felt they cared about helping me and not just a dollar sign on my forehead. She doesn't have a magic wand and there's no such thing as a miracle cure. But after everything is said and done I feel a million times better than I did before and am really grateful to Dr. Maryam and her entire team. read more

Dr. Maryam is such a kind and genuine person who gave me hope after years of TMJ pain that I was feeling would be forever. I have seen multiple specialists for my unbearable jaw pain and headaches and I've never encountered anyone with such knowledge and care as I did at Manhattan Beach Orthodontics. During my consultation, Dr. Maryam took an x-ray and explained exactly what was causing me pain and popping. This was the first time anyone had ever given me a thorough explanation and the option of a real, long term treatment plan (not just wear a night guard). I am currently in the middle stages of my treatment and I have hope for the first time! It was a big investment but I truly trust her and believe that she is not only passionate about helping people but also knows her stuff like no one else! If you're TMJ is causing you daily stress I recommend going to see Dr. Maryam 1000% PS her whole team is fabulous too! read more

I'm so grateful to have found Dr. Maryam as my orthodontist. I got a referral from my friend's friend and I decided to have my braces here. It's one of my best decisions I've done in my life. My teeth were overbite, very crowded and been getting headaches since I was little. And I was not confident to laugh or smile all my life because I didn't want anyone to see my crowded and unaligned teeth. But coming to Dr. Maryam changed everything. She and all her staffs are very friendly, nice and always make me feel welcome at the office. I didn't even have to remove any tooth even though my teeth were super crowded. I just needed to wear expanders for a year and less than 2 years of braces and I was done with zero pain the whole process. Now my headache is gone, I can smile and laugh with confident by showing my teeth and have a lot of compliments already. Thank you so much Dr. Maryam and all the staffs. I'd rate 10 Stars if I could. Highly recommend orthodontist in South Bay Area! read more

It took me years to gather the courage to finally write this review because I like Dr. Maryam very much as a person and can truly attest that she is one of the sweetest and kindest people. But I also think it is important to share my experience so others don't make the same mistake I made. Dr. Maryam may be wonderful for TMJ issues or basic orthodontics, but that is not what I went to her for so I'm only sharing my own experience (and the experience of a few other close contacts who underwent treatment with her for similar issues). I was very, very disappointed with my treatment and still am to this day. If you are a jaw surgery candidate, which was the case for me and the others I know, then I strongly, strongly recommend doing the surgery and saving yourself the years of time, money and effort involved in taking Dr. Maryam's "alternative European" approach. Dr. Maryam told me that her approach will get me the results I wanted so I no longer have to do the jaw surgery. My goal was to correct my under bite/cross bite so my front teeth are no longer edge-to-edge and no longer chip each other away, but unfortunately the problem still continues post treatment. I had braces for about 2.5-3 years with her (as an adult and for the second time in my life, when the treatment was supposed to be much shorter). The day she took them off, I literally cried for days because my teeth and bite had not significantly improved and I felt cheated. In fact, I liked my teeth better before I had these adult braces. I felt like this was a huge waste of $10,000 and years of my life. When I asked to see my "before" pictures multiple times so I can compare them to the results, I was told that they changed their system and could not access them. This really upset me because I'm pretty sure she didn't want me to see that my "before" pictures of my bite don't look much different than the "after". But worst of all, I developed tinnitus midway through my treatment. To this day, I am suffering from it and cannot enjoy silence because I'm constantly hearing swishing in my ear. I've seen multiple ENT doctors about it and the conclusion was that the orthodontic treatment and movement of my jaw must have triggered it. Dr. Maryam offered to inject saline into my jugular vein and said it "might" help, but I didn't want to go through more treatment and pain, and waste any more time there, which brings me to my last point. I live far from her practice and one of the main reasons I agreed to start treatment with her was because she was open on Saturdays. Midway through my treatment, she stopped working on Saturdays which forced me to take hours out of my work day mid-week regularly for my appointments. All in all, I'm very disappointed and unhappy, and wish I had gone the other route. Almost ten years later, this experience still weighs heavily on me. Again, this wasn't an easy review for me to share because Dr. Maryam was always kind, sweet and attentive and I didn't want to say anything negative about her, but if you need jaw surgery (to correct an under bite, over bite, or cross bite), I strongly advise you go that route. Sadly, I still need jaw surgery and wish I had done it over a decade ago when I was contemplating it :( read more

I'm so grateful to have found Dr. Maryam. She is an exceptional doctor. I have received the best possible treatment and owe my life to her. I want to express my sincere appreciation. I am a 19 year old full time student and a part time model. I've had constant temporal headaches as well as neck pain. My two upper central teeth were crooked. She fixed my bite and put braces on the upper arch only, because she was completely honest and told me I don't need braces on the lower. She's one of the few orthodontists that never extracted any teeth for a treatment which is AMAZING. I don't think anyone knows this, but Dr. Maryam is a dentist who also invented an orthotic appliance called Bella Lip Appliance (blafit) which has helped me with my TMJ, it also plumped up my lips and sharpened my jawline after only a few uses!! She's all in for natural beauty and is against any types of injections. I can't thank her enough for caring for her patients more than the minimum required. I feel like everyone deserves to know about her as a doctor and the AMAZING appliance she created for everyone. I highly recommend her. You can also ask to purchase her the appliance! I bought it for all of my friends that preach defining their face and plumping their lips naturally. read more

In November of 2013, I ended at the ER two days in a row (everything started after a sneeze!) for the second time that year due to what I considered - and was treated for - a severe migraine attack. Shortly after this, I was referred to Dr.Maryam by my primary doctor. He asked me in my annual physical appointment if I have checked my TMJ as that can be the cause of my headache. To be honest with you, I chuckled at the thought of my jaw being the reason for the excruciating pain I have had experienced in the past, but since I was ready to try anything to never go through that again, I scheduled a consultation with Dr. Maryam and I am absolutely happy I did! In the first visit and after taking a 3D X-Ray and examining my face, it was clear that my TMJ could be the cause of my "migraine" attacks. I was provided by a retainer that I was asked to wear during the day and a nightguard. I am not gonna lie! They were not easy to wear. Especially, because they were forcing me to bite down differently and the first few weeks, I was simply uncomfortable. Very soon though, the regular tensions headaches I used to get at least 2-3 times a week were gone...and I have not experienced any migraine-like attacks since December '13. Now when I close my mouth, my top and bottom teeth do not touch and I am conscious of grinding my teeth, something that I was completely oblivious to less than 2 years ago! My quality of life has drastically increased over the last 18 months and I am always grateful to Dr. Maryam for fixing my TMJ and for her continuous care and support. read more

Dr. Maryam Bakhtiyari is really a wonderful Orthodontist who cares about her patient. I was referred by my dentist and was glad I went to see her. I didn't want any of my teeth pulled because I wanted to have all of them. She was one of the few Orthodontist that wouldn't pull teeth just because of over crowding of my small mouth. It's been a year and a month with braces now and wow what a different. The last thing I would like to mention is that her and her staff are very friendly. I'm really not an open person but they make me feel good enough to be able to talk to them. The best thing of all is that they call you to remind you of your appointment. I would highly recommend her to anyone. I put my trust into her with my teeth and am very satisfied. Overall experience is great! read more

I can't express how much I appreciate all that Dr. Maryam does for her patients. I'm grateful, but not surprised, since Dr. Maryam's manner of treating my TMJ for months now has been nothing less than perfect. She's kind, aware, brilliantly educated, and and both naturally and professionally gifted. Her talent, coupled with state of the art equipment, clean surroundings, and placid ambiance, all complete the atmosphere for a patient in pain to relax, tell their medical story, and become the recipient of help on the way. She confirmed the diagnosis and cause of my TMJ by taking CBCT 3D x-ray which shows perfect images of my dental anatomy, Temporomandibular joints, and airway. Before visiting Dr. Maryam, I had constant headaches, jaw issues, clicking, sleep issues, trouble breathing, and was grinding my teeth. Now, I feel so much better and am 100% pain free. I sleep better, breath through my nose, and no longer have to tolerate jaw and neck pain. She's also the inventor of the BLAfit appliance that exercises facial muscles and releases tension in jaw. I 100% recommend trusting her! read more

TMJ miracle doctor! My primary doctor referred me to dr Maryan Bakhtiyari in Manhattan Beach because I was desperate. My TMJ was getting worse by the week and my existing mouthguard seemed to be exacerbating the situation. I had horrible neck pain and kept noticing myself holding my neck and back in awkward positions, my jaw was locking and I was noticing odd symptoms like feeling as if my tongue was too big for my mouth/ I couldn't sleep, my mouth opened oddly pulled to the side the TMJ was most affecting, the list went on... The first time I met Dr Maryan I had hope she could fix this. While completing the pre-visit survey of symptoms I was so happy to see "does your tongue feel too big for your mouth"... YES!! my odd symptom wasn't in my head it was actually a TMJ symptom. First off she is lovely. So kind and understanding. She took a full x-ray that scanned in a circle around my skull. The results were so interesting. My jaw was shoved back and causing impingement on my corroded artery and therefore the blood to my brain. (no comments lol). She immediately made me a new mouth splint (similar to guard). I have been wearing it for probably 6 months and my TMJ is gone. Along with my neck pain. If you have any of these types of mysterious sleep, head/neck, snoring, breathing issues, teeth grinding, malalignment of your jaw etc.. you need to talk to Dr Maryam. I am so grateful for her care which allowed me to get my life back. read more

I am overdue in writing this review, I was reminded AGAIN this week of how Dr Maryam has significantly helped our family. I found her when I came down with SEVERE TJM last year. I was in such tremendous pain, I couldn't eat, couldn't smile and would lay in bed at night and cry in pain. As soon as I met her she assured me that "she had seen this many times before" and she could help me. She gave me a mouthpiece (that I still wear at night and has become my most valuable possession!) and completely changed my life. I have ZERO pain and because my jaw was out of alignment, I was having all sorts of other issues I wasn't even aware of - for example, I'm much stronger, who knew that had to do with jaw alignment). She has changed my life and I'm forever grateful to her. She is a great teacher and since I now had a basic understanding of jaw alignment, I noticed my son's jaw was off. I brought him in and she put braces on him and explained that because his jaw alignment was off, he wasn't getting enough oxygen to his brain. We thought my son had ADD and some sort of fidgeting disorder (seriously, he couldn't stop moving) -- but she explained that the constant movement was his body's way of trying to get more oxygen. Fast forward a year (we had slowly forgotten about the fidgeting and his grades had improved to all As because he will do his homework for hours) --- my husband saw him with a group of friends and observed that they were all fidgety but our son can stand calmly now. He had completely stopped fidgeting and we didn't even notice because it was gradual. He was the one who reminded us "Dr Maryam said I'd stop fidgeting, remember?" We had totally forgotten and taken for granted this HUGE change in his overall persona. I spoke to my dentist about it earlier in the week and she agreed it was 100% what Dr Maryam did. She also gave our 8 year old an expander. She went from a crowded mouth (and a chronic cold - I'll explain that in a minute) to a beautifully open and uncrowded mouth. Our little one was always sick, Dr Maryam asked if she was alway sick and said the expander would make a huge difference, something about she use to do all her breathing through her mouth... it had to do with the expander, but I can't remember exactly how. But she was the only one in our house who didn't get sick this winter! Sorry for the long review, I just can't say enough great things about Dr Maryam (and her staff). I haven't mentioned yet that she is the nicest and warmest person I know. Her office is so welcoming, we always look forward to going in there. If you are lucky enough to find her, TRUST HER and be grateful you found her!!! 3 for 3, she has had a tremendous impact on our family. Good luck with your ortho needs, I have 100% confidence that she'll help you as much as she has helped us! read more

I suffered for 15 years with jaw pain, "popping" and my jaw locking open. The anxiety it caused me was through the roof. I saw two different TMJ specialists and nobody could help me. Then I started seeing the same problems in my daughters. They both had jaw pain, "popping" and when stressed they had limited range when trying to open their mouths. I started with them working with Dr. Maryam and then finally it was my turn. A year later and I am so incredibly grateful. No more pain, no more "popping" and I can actually yawn a full yawn without fear that my jaw will lock open. She is a true miracle worker. She also has such empathy and compassion with everyone she encounters. Thank you Dr. Maryam. Worth every penny. read more

Maryam Bakhtiyari, DDS is powerful beyond measures. She carries a rare, authentic, creative. humble, compassionate, patient, spiritual soul. Maryam has forever changed the confidence I feel every time I smile to the world around me. My case is a rare case where I was born missing two of my teeth and therefore Maryam knew my case would require immense time, consistency, teamwork, and diligence. She worked with me through the many insecurities and fears I developed as a teenager because of my circumstance. She worked with other prestige surgeons to team up and ensure that my smile would last me a lifetime. The process took years, as Maryam create hand-tailored retainers to expand my jaw, braces to straighten and align my teeth, do my veneers with accurate aligning and colors, and maintaing my healthy smile every few months I come in for a check up and cleaning. The vibe in the office is absolutely comforting. The energy is always positive, enriching, and vibrant. The colors make you feel good when you walk in. The artwork manifested by the incredible Maryam Bakhtiyari, DDS is stunning and allows your imagination to go to peaceful places as you wait for her to come visit your room. The staff are extremely understanding, comforting, welcoming, focused, and compassionate towards your visit, every visit. I am so thankful to have Maryam Bakhtiyari, DDS as apart of my life, and to have her healing hands create a solution for my smile. If you are looking for a humbling and quality experience, stop by 1117 2nd St Manhattan Beach, CA 90266. Thank you Dr. Maryam. I am forever grateful. Namaste. Neda. read more

My dentist refer me to Maryam Bakhtiyari, DDS to treat my TMJ a couple of years ago. I was suffering from a headache on daily basis prior to meeting her. But, within 3 months of treatment, I began to experience much less pain. What I most appreciated about Dr. Bakhtiyari was her wonderful demeanor. She was not only professional, expert in her field, but also, warm and supportive. Her warmth really helped me feel at ease about the treatment. I have never had a medical professional, who is so classy and gracious. Her staff is also consistently warm and pleasant, just like Dr. Bakhtiyari. And her office is clean, crisp and airy, a very comfortable place to be. Thank you Dr. Bakhtiyari for all you have done for me. You are inarguably an amazing doctor! read more

Dr. Maryam and her staff are extremely professional, helpful, informative and certainly friendly. I am very pleased with the personal, down to earth approach that I experienced both in the office as well as on the phone. I am in the beginning stage of treating my sleep apnea, snoring, ear ringing, etc. so I am unable to review the treatment itself, but I do intend to do so at another time. All I can do at this point is strongly recommend Dr. Bakhityari and her staff based on the way they have worked with me and have proactively addressed my medical issues. A+++ read more

Dr Maryam is exceptional and worth every penny. She is smart, intuitive, and really cares. She found problems that were overlooked by other dentists and had me feeling better in no time. Looking forward to seeing her again for TMJ. read more

My family has been going to Dr. Maryam for fourteen years. We have used her services as an orthodontist, dentist, for problems with snoring and grinding teeth. She has given us excellent care. Her office is easy to get to and extremely clean and inviting. I have recommended her to many of my friends and family. She is really great with kids including those with special needs. I highly recommend her. read more

Dr. Maryam is the orthodontist for my 3 children. One of my daughter's teeth were moving forward and the top of her palate was narrowing due to her sucking her thumb. Dr. Maryam, who is unbelievably sweet with my children and so nurturing, put in a palate expander which immediately stopped the thumb sucking and within weeks her palate started to widen and look normal and beautiful without ever having to extract any of her teeth. Dr. Maryam used a palate expander on my other daughter too and made room for all of her teeth never having to extract any of her teeth as well. My children are very comfortable in her office. Her staff is very friendly and professional and my children never have any hesitation going there for adjustments. In only a few months, my children's teeth have all changed for the better and we thank Dr. Maryam for it. read more

I was referred to Dr. Maryam by a friend who is currently her patient and let me tell you that it has changed my life! Seriously, i've been wearing braces now for almost three months and the difference is amazing! Not to mention the fact that she's helping me with my TMJ and my headaches have practically disappeared! The staff is super friendly, they always welcome me with a smile! I cannot stress enough what a positive experience i've had so far with Dr. Maryam and her staff. I highly recommend her! read more

Dr. Maryam is the most professional and caring person I've ever met. Staff is wonderful and who would believe little kids cheering to go to a dental office. My wife and I are so grateful to have her. First review I've ever done so it says a lot. read more

I have had TMJ cracking, popping and jaw pain ever since I was a little girl. Over the past 7 years my jaw had been getting worse and I was having a harder time opening it and my headaches were getting bad. It was very hard to know what to do and having surgery just seemed awful. Finally 6 months ago I was referred to Dr. Maryam. She is my angel. Within a few days of getting the appliance she recommended my jaw clicking and pain were gone. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her and her office. She offers a free consoltation which is rare for tmj issues. I promise you she will help you. I wish I had found her sooner. read more

Dr Maryam is very skilled at what she does. I suffered from neck pain, all day, everyday. My dentist referred me out to Dr Maryam because of her specialty in TMJ and braces. She is a true master at this craft. I had braces when I was younger and they destroyed my alignment and was just getting worse with age. I'm 40 now. I wasn't ready to have another round of orthodontia but I was open to it. I'm am now pain free and have a beautiful smile. My alignment is now where it should be! God bless her for her talent! read more

Dr. Maryam is the best!!! So happy to have found this place. She cares about looks but mostly about fixing problems to the roots. I come the distance because it is worth it! read more
