The Academy of OralFacial MyoFunctional Therapy indicates that Oralfacial Myofunctional Disorders are disorders of the muscles and functions of the face and mouth. Oral Myofunctional Disorders may affect, directly and/or indirectly, breastfeeding, facial skeletal growth and development, chewing, swallowing, speech, occlusion, temporomandibular joint movement, oral hygiene, the stability of orthodontic treatment, facial appearance/aesthetics, and more. Most OMDs originate with insufficient habitual nasal breathing or with oral breathing.

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.
sues. 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.
He really impressed me at my first two visits and he came very highly recommended. My mom was treated for TMJ by his dad and insisted that I only see Dr. Gelb since her results were 100% satisfactory.
Thankyou Dr. Gelb. Wait – let me say it one more time: Thank you Dr. Gelb … thankfully the tri-state area has the Gelb Center.
I cannot say enough positive good things about Dr. Gelb and his staff. I came to him and he turned my life around for the better almost immediately.
Dr. Michael Gelb is world-renowned and extremely knowledgeable in disorders of the TMJ. He is also well-versed in Sleep Medicine.
Best hands down… They care about your total well-being! Highly recommend the Gelb Center if you are suffering from TMJ or sleep apnea!
Excellent – very professional and efficient practice. Very nice staff and fabulous doctor.
Simply stated, Dr. Gelb is stellar! I can’t recommend him enough and can’t wait until I am free, with his help, from dealing with this chronic health issue.
By far the best doctor in NYC. I highly recommend people see him because TMJ can be solved and linked to so many daily problems!
I love Dr. Gelb’s energy, efficiency, and ability to make me laugh. His staff is great, very professional and always kind.
It has been almost a year since you and your wonderful staff changed my life. By the time you all had reset the order of my bite and removed the pain in my jaw with your night and daytime appliances, my C-PAP machine for my “severe” sleep apnea was no longer needed and my sleep became quiet again. After I graduated from your excellent care, Dr. Barone recommended that I return to spend the night at the Weill Cornell Center for Sleep to get the definitive read on how well your reconstructive work had mastered my serious sleep apnea. In layman’s terms, the score for quality of my breathing while sleeping was something like a “1” and was the lowest score the Center had ever seen. I forwarded that report to you at that time. I do not expect to ever return to my C-PAP machine. Your and all your staff are truly masters of your craft!! I would recommend you heartily to anyone who has jaw, bite, or sleep apnea issues. You are the best in the business!
From the moment I walk into the time I leave, Dr. Gelb and his staff are compassionate, helpful and genuinely interested in making my jaw, and life, better.
I am an Obstructive Sleep Apnea patient and Dr. Gelb literally changed my life, and maybe even saved it.
… I am so thankful for this man for renewing the lease on my life! You are without a doubt one of Gods Angels on earth.
He gave me jaw appliances one for the day and one for the night and they seriously help. He really knows what he is doing and I couldn’t be more happy to have found the best jaw doc in NYC.
