On this episode, Dr. Bluestein and Kerry talk to Dr. John Mitakides about jaw issues that can arise in patients with hypermobility disorders including TMJ (temporomandibular joint) dysfunction.
Dr. Mitakides is a Diplomate of the American Academy of Craniofacial Pain, one of only 115 practitioners in North America to earn that recognition. He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Craniofacial Dental Sleep Medicine, and a member of the Professional Advisory Network of the Ehlers-Danlos National Foundation, the leading organization serving EDS patients and physicians. In addition, he is the only dental professional serving as consultant to the new Ehlers-Danlos National Foundation Center for Clinical Care and Research in Baltimore.
