The
Complete Jaw Care
Difference
From paediatric jaw development to complex adult TMJ disorders.
Complete Jaw Care addresses the root cause, as well as alleviating your symptoms.
Jaw pain and jaw development interventions require individualised treatment and often collaborative care. Dr. Michelle Clarke works with other healthcare providers to ensure you get the care you need.
Dr. Michelle Clarke has over 20 years experience with a unique approach to jaw care, and is one of the few chiropractors in Australia with advanced TMJ, airway and oral ties training, as well as being a qualified orofacial myofunctional therapist.
Dr. Clarke combines her knowledge of spinal function, clinical neurology, TMJ and orofacial myofunctional therapy to tailor TMJ and orofacial treatment.
