Your temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is the place where your jaw connects to your skull to allow you to open and close your jaw smoothly. Sometimes, the temporomandibular joint is injured or damaged, resulting in a painful condition known as temporomandibular joint dysfunction or disorder (TMD). If you're having pain or hearing noises whenever you move your jaw, schedule an appointment with Dr. Ellen Katz or Dr. Bridget Glazarov to determine if you have TMJ. At our dental practice in New York, NY, we use the most cutting-edge technology to diagnose and care for your TMD. Contact our office to set up an appointment and learn more about treatment options for TMJ.

What to Expect
To help diagnose a temporomandibular dysfunction at Maison BE, your dentist will carefully listen to your concerns prior to performing a mouth examination. During the exam, Dr. Ellen or Dr. Bridget will evaluate the movement of your jaw and look for signs of inflammation, misalignment, teeth grinding, and jaw clenching. Digital dental imaging may also be carried out to look for underlying causes that could determine your treatment method. Your TMJ therapy will be provided based on the severity of the issue, but some choices include oral appliances (mouth or night guards), bite adjustment, orthodontics, or dental restorations (such as crowns or bridges). Our dentists will also suggest strategies to ease pain and other problems at home.
Maison BE Dental Studio Reviews
An exceptional dental experience like none other. From the moment I walked in the door until I left, I was treated like gold. The staff is warm and inviting. My hygienist, Jade was personable and put me at ease during my new patient experience. Dr. Ellen helped me create a plan of care based on my goals and what's best best for my oral health. The office is fabulous and it's a boutique experience I cannot recommend enough. This dental studio is like none other and I am so pleased to be a new patient at such a wonderful and caring dental studio. They have added touches and options that set them apart from all others and they have raised the bar on what an amazing patient experience is supposed to feel like. I speak confidently and with experience writing this review as I'm a nurse and they know what it means to make it all about the patient. They have thought of everything and then things that make sense that no other dental office has offered during an office visit. My under eye patches were soothing and my favorite part! I truly feel that everyone has my best interest at heart and insures I feel like a VIP while at Maison Be. They sent me home with a beautiful bag of goodies which made my day. I cannot wait to wear my new sweatshirt and feel apart of the Maison Be family as I am proud to represent such an exceptional dental studio. This women owned business has knocked it out of the park!!!!! I am pleased to support these women as they build a brand unlike none other. Thank you everyone who made my first experience one that I will not forget. I can't wait to go back and who says that about the dentist?! Fabulous and fun!!
Have been looking for a new dentist since i moved to the city and after some research and a TikTok post(haha) i decided to try out Maison Be. To start off the appointment making process was so smooth for a new patient, didn't have to call just made an appointment online; the front desk staff is very very organized, so welcoming and kind, very short wait and even offered me a beverage while i waited. The hygienist(completely forgot her name but i believe it starts with a J) and Dr (Ellen Katz) were both so sweet and personable. They both made me feel so comfortable with the amenities provided AND checked in with me while they were checking and cleaning my teeth. I really appreciate the service and visit I received because as a person of color I feel a lot of offices aren't as welcoming and genuine about the care they give me. So glad I found my new dentist! Thank you so much!!!
The doctor has the most personable approach, remembering me every time. Had my first ever filling (I was nervous) and they made me so comfortable. It also was super quick and efficient. As a former dentist hater/avoider, they have truly turned my views on the dentist around.
Dr. Ellen is the best. She had a comprehensive understanding of what I needed to get taken care of and she provided a plan that would work effectively to ensure I get the results I want. She was extremely attentive and performed every procedure smoothly with great results and zero pain! I recommend her for all dental needs and trust her to do what’s best for the patient because of her vast experience and academic knowledge. The experience at the office was 5 stars, it’s a beautiful place and felt like I was at a luxury spa!
Absolutely amazing. A trip to the dentist that feels like a relaxing day on vacation.
