I’ve been going to Dr. Woodlief for almost five years, and he is truly the best in the Bay Area when it comes to airway health—and he was exceptional during his time practicing dentistry as well. He and his entire team provide outstanding care, service, and genuine hospitality.

What I appreciate most is how incredibly knowledgeable Dr. Woodlief is, not only in his specialties but in many aspects of overall health. He is always continuing his education and stays current with the latest research and advancements in airway health and dentistry, which brings a level of confidence and trust that is rare to find.

I originally came to him for TMJD and chronic pain, and I have noticed significant improvements since starting care. The progress I’ve experienced has been life-changing, and I am so grateful to have found a provider who truly looks at the whole person, not just symptoms. I cannot recommend Dr. Woodlief highly enough.

Client Reviews

I feel so fortunate that my chiropractor referred me to Dr. Victor Woodlief to address my issues with TMJ. Working with Dr. Woodlief and his friendly staff has been both a joy and a game changer when it comes to my quality of life. Because of my TMJ, I would get painful lower back strains on a regular basis, and it would take very little to set me back physically to the point I feared doing rigorous exercise with a range of movements. Thanks to treatment from Dr. Woodlief, my body is stronger and more stable, and I can move with a freedom I haven’t had in years. Dr. Woodlief is also helping me open my airways to improve my sleep, and getting deeper rest has helped me function better in general. Dr. Woodlief knows his stuff. I feel confident being in his care, and I highly recommend him.

Since developing TMD, I was in constant terror that I would always be in pain while eating, talking...even opening my mouth wider than 2 cm caused an excruciating aching pain in my TMJ.
By this point, I had already seen several dental providers, each of whom seemed hesitant about treating TMD - some referred me to dental surgeons and another treated me with a mouth splint, which never helped. I was pretty desperate at this point, and was really hoping surgery was not the only option left.
I'm really happy to have found Dr. Woodlief and his team. Since day 1, they have been welcoming and professional. Jaylin at the front desk is super organized and helpful. Dr. Woodlief is extremely knowledgeable about TMD treatment - a stark difference from the other dental providers I've seen. When he suggested another mouth splint and prolotherapy, I was skeptical. But after listening to him explain the anatomy of the TMJ and how the splint would help, it was clear Dr. Woodlief knows what he's doing. He was confident this would work.
And it worked. It really worked! Now I can open my jaw 4 cm wide with no pain. I no longer have pain with chewing or talking. I'm also hardly grinding my teeth at night with the new device Dr. Woodlief custom made for me. I highly recommend this clinic for those suffering from TMD!
