Meet Dr Sam Hakim

D.D.S. , B.D.S
Dr Sam Hakim believes in helping people find permanent relief, not by medication or invasive surgery, but through holistic care and expert treatment.
Having established himself as one of the most sought-after cosmetic dentists in Southern California, Dr Sam Hakim’s first insight into the damage caused by TMJ came three decades ago when he noticed patients returning with damage to the cosmetic dental work he had completed for them. These patients were showing unexpected damage to their beautifully placed cosmetic dental work and dental implants, such as grinding wear from bruxism to opposing teeth. Interestingly, these patients also reported seemingly unrelated symptoms such as ringing in the ears and neck, shoulder, and back pain. Synthesizing all this data, Dr Sam Hakim grasped the jaw and body connection. The issue was not the cosmetic work itself, but something more subtle and insidious — an unbalanced bite — TMJ.

“If I could give more than five stars, I would”

Testimonials for The TMJ Expert
If I could give more than five stars, I would. For months I had worsening headaches, eventually missing huge amounts of workhours because I just couldn't get out of bed. I own my own business, so aside from the pain aspect, I just couldn't go on without some sort of remedy. I saw SO many specialists: ENT, neurology, chiropractic, acupuncture, my regular doctor and dentist, massage, etc. MRIs and X-Rays didn't show any issues... It's been about six weeks since I first saw Dr.Siman, and I'm essentially headache-free. Yes, that quickly! My relief was almost instantaneous, starting the very first day. Seems to me that's pretty rare in any form of medicine. Great staff too, very helpful and friendly. I'm a pretty optimistic guy, but my condition had me in a really dark place. For Dr. Siman, I can't say enough good words for helping me find my way back... but hopefully these few will help others.
