“Dr elb and his staff have been instrumental in my recovery from tmj symptoms and sleep apnea. Dr gelb and his office have referred me to multiple other practitioners including physical therapists, indicating their holistic approach to solving my pain related issues. His office has been extremely accommodating on payment, and persistent to make sure that I am able to get the help and treatment I have needed. If you are experiencing jaw pain and don’t feel like there are any answers, I highly recommend you pay Dr Gelb a visit.” ~ Yelp
“I spent close to 50 years in search of relief from severe migraines. My lucky day was the day I walked into the offices of Michael Gelb, DDS in NYC. What was diagnosed for 50+ years as a migraine, was in large part a severe case of TMJ. Dr. Gelb has given me extraordinary care, exploring paths that I never knew existed while monitoring each step of the way. For the first time in decades, I am experiencing relief. Dr. Gelb did not give up on me- when one road did not work, he searched for another. How very fortunate I am. He is simply the best.” ~ Google

“I could never say enough good about Dr. Gelb …he literally saved my life!!..I went to 6 doctors, yes 6! Without any of them knowing why I was having terrible ear fullness and titus that kept me up through out the night …I had to actually take an LOA from work because it became so difficult to deal with that I became super depressed and felt so bad for my 8 year old son..it was true torture…the upsetting moment after leaving every doctor with un-answered questions as to why??? I had a brain mri, I had multiple hearing test I was placed on anti inflammatory medicine. NOTHING worked, finally an ENT said maybe TMJ? that’s when my mother found Dr. Gelb … the cat scan showed my jaw had basically collapsed on my ear and was blocking a huge part of my air way which caused a struggle to breathe at night….yes it’s a costly center but I would spend every dollar because it is worth it ,I spent 400 on a mouth guard from my dentist prior that did absolutely nothing…less than 24 hours after wearing these mouth pieces from Dr. Gelb my ear opened up because the mouth piece already began to reconfigure my jaw ..by my next visit all my issues were practically gone those mouth pieces are Gold!!!!! Dr. Gelb is my GOD send .. not only did they help my jaw.. but I stopped snoring like a bear and rarely get migraines like I used to quite frequently …This man is amazing …I love you Dr. Gelb and forever thankful to you.” ~ Yelp
“One of the best docs I’ve been to. Doctor Gelb and all the staff he works with are awesome 🙂 .” ~ Google
Dr Michael Gelb is world renowned and extremely knowledgeable in disorders of the TMJ. He is also well versed in Sleep Medicine. He lectures locally, nationally and internationally as he is the “go-to-source”. He is a friend who is always willing to give a helping hand no matter what the situation. Though his fees are reasonably priced, it is well worth going to someone who helped write the book on TMD with his father and has a patented oral device that he created and bears his name When I have a challenging case that I cannot handle, I refer them to the last source, Dr Michael Gelb because if he can’t help them, no one else can!!! ~ HealthGrades

“This TMJ specialist Doctor in NYC is the real deal. No fluff, no hype.. but beautiful Upper East Side office. The doctor truly is a TMJ specialist. He accurately diagnosed my TMJ and quickly treated it. I can’t believe I am TMJ free: no more grinding, no more pain, no more sleep issues. Thank you Dr. Gelb and all of you at The Gelb Center: you are all fantastic and empathetic doctors and your staff is professional and helpful.” ~ Google
“I’ve been suffering from severe (sometimes week long) migraines for the past two years related to TMJ issues from neck surgery. I’ve seen an ENT the past 9 months who only gave me botox which did provide short term relief. However, I decided to switch to Dr Gelb as I needed a specialist for a long term solution. From the start of my interactions with the team through meeting and being treated by Dr Gelb, the process was seamless and I felt very comfortable and more informed than ever. I was impressed with the level of administrative and medical professionalism- they go out of their way to ensure an in depth evaluation is done for not only a treatment plan but to work with your insurance company to help with coverage. An in depth evaluation was done and more importantly, Dr Gelb explained everything to me in a way I could understand. Very please. I intend to continue my treatment with the Dr and would recommend other migraine/TMJ sufferers to see Dr Gelb, as finding a good practice is hard to come by.” ~ Yelp
“I will never forget the day I woke up with my jaw locked into place, and I will never forget the way Dr. Gelb helped me recover. Dr. Gelb worked with me to make sure I was feeling better, crafting several mouth guards for me with the utmost care. Not only is he an incredible doctor, but he also has a great bedside manner. He makes you feel so comfortable and confident in your health. I would recommend Dr. Gelb to anyone who has had any TMJ/jaw pain issues. He is simply the best.” ~ Yelp
“I am a Obstructive Sleep Apnea patient and Dr. Gelb literally changed my life, and maybe even saved it. . After wearing the custom appliance my snoring has essentailly stopped, I wake up refreshed after a good nights sleep and my wife no longer has to wear ear plugs every night.. Yes it was expensive but worth every penny in my opinion.” ~ Yelp
“Simply stated, Dr. Gelb is stellar! I have suffered from TMJ disorder for years on end and am currently under his care. He is a the pro when it comes to all matters related to this disorder which can be quite debilitating to say the least. He is highly focused and attentive as well is his staff. I can’t recommend him enough and can’t wait until I am free, with his help, from dealing with this chronic health issue.” ~ Yelp
