Dr. Scotty Bolding on TMJ Health

Every movement has a purpose.

Every symptom has a cause.

Every solution begins with understanding structure.

Every movement, every breath, and every bite depends on how we're built. At TMJ Health, we believe lasting solutions begin with understanding structure—not simply treating symptoms.

Stories From Our Patients

"Dr Bolding Saved My Life!"

“I truly believe that Dr. Bolding and his great team have prolonged my life! I had severe sleep apnea and had failed cpap as well as oral jaw advancement appliances. Dr. Bolding surgically moved my upper and lower jaws and corrected my deviated septum, which opened my airway. I can breathe again!!
Everything was explained to me in detail before the surgery.
Everyone at the front desk was always warm and friendly to me. His surgical staff was not only very professional, but also comforting.

Tim Lane DDS

"Exceptional care and attention to detail."

“Dr. Bolding and his staff are AWESOME! I had TMJ pain for years and saw countless Doctors and TMJ Specialist to just continue in pain. Dr. Bolding listened to me and performed surgery. I had adhesions that had grown to the tendons of my jaw . For years, I wore appliances, braces, just to continue to suffer. Immediately after surgery, the pain was gone. I feel like a normal person now. Dr. Bolding is compassionate brilliant Doctor. If you have TMJ or facial pain, he is the only Doctor to see. I thank God for Dr. Bolding.”

"My Husband and I are so thankful for Dr. Bolding"

“My husband and I have BOTH had fantastic experiences with Dr. Bolding. Our story is a bit unique considering we have both had issues with our jaws, but Dr. Bolding and his team took great care of us and solved all of our problems. Before getting a consult with Dr. Bolding, I was told I would need to travel out of state to get the jaw joint replacement surgery that I was needing…thank to the PRECiDENT center I was well taken care of right here in NWA."
