Dr. Halligan and Andrea were excellent at assessing my situation. I had been told by a previous dentist that I had a degenerating TM joint and needed expensive splints and other treatment. Dr. Halligan assessed my joints in a variety of ways and found that I do NOT in fact, have a degenerating joint, that my joints are healthy and there was nothing needing treatment. He also advised me on some of my options for re-aligning my teeth and talked with 2 dentists he thought could help me. I think he is trustworthy, smart and he's not just trying to sell you surgery or expensive appliances.
