How we vet & verify providers

TMJDirectory is an independent directory. We want you to know exactly where our listings come from, what being listed does and doesn't mean, and how a profile earns its ✓ Verified badge.

Where our listings come from

Most listings are compiled from public, authoritative sources, including the U.S. National Provider Identifier (NPI) registry, professional association directories, and public web research, and organized into one searchable place. Inclusion means a provider appears in those sources with a temporomandibular-disorder (TMJD) focus, such as an orofacial-pain credential, a dedicated TMJ program, or intra-oral treatment training.

What a listing means, and what it doesn't

A listing is a starting point for your own research, not an endorsement, ranking, or guarantee of any outcome. We don't take payment to include a provider, and being listed doesn't imply TMJDirectory has personally evaluated their care. TMJDirectory does not certify or independently determine whether a listed professional is a specialist, titles, credentials, and areas of practice are provided by the listed professional unless otherwise indicated. Credentials, licensure, and fit should always be confirmed directly with the provider before booking.

How a listing becomes Verified

A profile shows the ✓ Verified badge once the provider has claimed it, signing in with the work email on file to confirm the listing is theirs, and reviewed or updated their information. Verified means the provider has taken ownership of the listing and confirmed it is accurate and current; unclaimed listings are shown as compiled from public sources and invite the provider to claim them.
