Reviews of Dr. Grin in Torrance , CA

Dr. Grin and his team are extremely professional and provide a welcoming environment. Dr. Grin is extremely knowledgeable with a breadth of training, and he provides thorough explanations on his recommended treatment. Great bedside manner. He and his team are very punctual and have excellent procedures in place evident in their team work. I have been very satisfied after my third appointment.

Dr. Grin was very patient and thorough evaluating my chronic jaw and facial pain. Imaging was done in his office, and he designed an appliance to successfully treat my pain. Dr. Grin takes the time to listen and truly cares about his patients. I highly recommend Dr. Grin.

Dr Paul Grin has been instrumental in relieving the debilitating pain associated with my TMJ. I was given the run round, seeing other providers who were unable to effectively treat my pain. I felt so helpless. Dr Grin was highly recommended by dental providers in the South Bay and well known in the community to treat such conditions. Dr Grin provided thorough examinations to address the issues. Dr Grin took a his time to explain treatment at each visit and patiently listened to my concerns. His staff were kind and willing to accommodate my schedule accordingly. I give so much thanks to Dr Grin, since he has been the ONLY doctor who has effectively treated my pain. He is compassionate and caring. Highly recommended!!!

I currently live in Arizona but travel to CA regularly for work and was happy to come across Dr. Grin and see that he is familiar with my connective tissue disorder. He was very knowledgeable and help me make the decision for the right care moving forward. Thanks Dr. Grin!

I've been going to Dr. Grin for a mild case of sleep apnea. I tried using a CPAP machine first, but I couldn't tolerate it. Dr. Grin and his staff are kind, patient and thorough. I highly recommend his office

We came to see Dr. Grin for my 14 year old daughter who had been having a locked jaw for almost 2 months. We had seen another specialist at KAiser that did not offer us anything but an invasive steroid injection into the tmj. I’m glad we didn’t proceed with this, because with therapy and medication her jaw unlocked! We also discovered through a CT that my daughter has arthritic changes in her tmj. I’m grateful to have found Dr. Grin he’s excellent!

Being a physician myself I was very impressed with Dr. Grin on my very first visit. He was very gentle, thorough and right away I felt it was a pleasure to have him as my doctor. He took care to learn about my past medical history and chief complaints ahead of time. He takes time to discuss details of physical and CT Scan findings and explains treatment plans in details. He is also complemented by an excellent office staff.

He is a great doctor. I hopped 5 doctors before to treat my pain, but no doctors treated me well. In the end, my primary doctor suggested me to go to his office. His treatment for my pain is good and my symptom has been much better. Thank you!

Dr Grin and his staff are very knowledgeable in their field. They are very patient and explain everything more than once if you do not fully understand. My TMJ has improved as far as the pain. I thank Dr. Grin and his staff for the care they take with their patients.

I met Dr. Grin while taking continuing dental education at UCLA, where he was one of the instructors. It was clear from his lectures and in our conversation that Dr. Grin put his patients best interest first. He is sincere in his mission to help his students and patients achieve health and happiness.

Dr. Grin is extremely intelligent, compassionate, caring person and truly outstanding doctor. I count myself lucky to have found him. The staff was incredibly friendly and professional . I highly recommend a visit to Dr. Grin.

When I met Dr Grin last month I knew I found a compassionate, knowledgeable Dr who understands and explains neuropathic pain in detail. Today I met with him and Dr Grin is so positive about my situation. I look forward to my next visit.

Great customer service from Dr. Grin and staff Total understanding regarding my medical condition and diagnosis Physician and staffs commitment to me per my medical condition was excellent

Wow. Dr. Paul Grin really listens. Seriously listens. To everything you say. And when you're done, he's still listening --in case you have something else to say. He never pounces on the last word of your sentence; he holds a professional pause on the chance that your own last word might prompt an afterthought that could add insight to his upcoming diagnosis and treatment of your case. He is amazing. With all his credentials and years experience, Dr. Grin is totally unassuming; he sits on a lower stool, creating the unintimidating position of a physician to a patient. He is kind, keenly aware, brilliantly educated, and both naturally and professionally gifted. Dr. Grin's competence effects a contagious calmness. His talent, coupled with state of the art equipment, impeccably clean surroundings, and placid ambience, all complete the atmosphere for a patient in pain to relax, tell her medical story, and become the recipient of help on the way. After our very first appointment, my husband and I wanted to invite Dr. Grin to our home for dinner since we were resigned to the impossibility of adopting him. I have TMJ with consequences including problematic dental care, chewing, and just plain pain. Dr. Grin identified and confirmed the diagnosis and cause of my TMJ. One specific success was to stop and rest the jaw for five minutes after each fifteen minutes of a dental procedure. What a difference: less pain in the short run, and weeks/months less recovery time in the long. Not to mention, improved nutrition due to my increasing ability to eat/chew food. AND, I'm still a relatively new patient looking forward to more benefits. Dr. Grin selected an expert staff: Ruth, Blanca and Carmen who are excellent.

Dr. Grin and his staff are professional, attentive and very friendly. Dr. Grin takes the time to listen to all of your concerns. Other doctors would only talk to me for 5 minutes and offer only one treatment option. He was willing to let me try other treatment options that I had been interested in. If you are looking for a doctor who empathizes with the patient, I definitely recommend Dr. Grin.

Wonderful. Dr. Grin was very patient and a thoughtful listener.He knew exactly how to treat my pain. I will never need to see another doctor. Dr Grin's staff are as wonderful as he is. They are friendly and knowledgeable as he.

My life was out of control after I suffered chronic nerve damage from a dental procedure. The pain was all consuming. As the mother of a toddler and a full time nursing student, I wondered how I'd manage any of my responsibilities after this injury. But, Dr. Grin and his staff have helped me to gradually regain control of this pain, and for this I am eternally grateful. By the time I showed up at Dr. Grin's office, I'd been to dozens of dentists, and doctors, and all of them were equally clueless about neuropathic facial pain. Dr. Grin, however, is a professor and expert in the field of orofacial pain. He has taken the time to understand the cause and triggers of my pain. Of particular note is how amenable he has been to my input every step of the way, and has repeatedly gone out of his way to try new approaches to treat this pain. He even ordered a special topical compound that has helped tremendously. I currently use a custom invisalign stent (designed by Dr. Grin) that allows me to apply these topical medications at all times, while talking/laughing, and it's unnoticeable to others. This has been so extremely helpful. While I am still dealing with this pain, I no longer feel that I am completely at its mercy. Every day, I feel a bit more in control of my life, and that feeling is priceless!! Thank you to the amazing staff at South Bay TMJ for their innovative medicine and devotion to their patients! I look forward to each visit (I drive from Carlsbad to see them!).

Thank you Dr Paul Grin and staff for a truly wonderful experience with explaining and treating my TMJ/jaw joint pain. Your thoroughness left no questions in my mind. I only wish that I would have seen you (have been referred to you) several years ago. From our first meeting and consultation, to my most recent visit to pick up my custom made night and day mouth-appliances, you and you staff explained every detail, every step of the way. Many thanks for the outstanding service! Sincerely, Karen

Great experience, great result. I am very happy to have Dr.Paul Grin as my TMJ Doctor!

Dr. Grinn and his staff were excellent in putting together a treatment plan that made sense and worked. I would recommend Dr Grinn and his staff to anyone dealing with TMJ.

I have been going with Dr. Grin for about a year now. I highly recommend him he is so patient, and doesn't rush you at all in meeting him. When I started I was in extreme pain due to Trigeminal Neuralgia. Dr Grin helped my pain to be under control with the right pain medication. His front staff is also very friendly and accommodating unlike other facilities. Facility - Immaculately clean, positive, 100% professional and fully equipped.

As a newer patient to Dr. Grin, I have been impressed with the culture of patient care as demonstrated by an inviting office, on-time appointments and an approachable team willing to explain both medical and insurance situations. I appreciate Dr. Grin's ability to manage a dynamic office with multiple patients while making enough time for each patient to get the individualized care and Q&A that his patients need.

I have had TMJ since a child, constant popping cracking dislocation but rarely had pain until... six months ago I woke up with lock jaw like symptoms. After four months with minimal range of motion and excruciating pain, I had my first appointment with Dr. Grin and began a regimen of at home exercises and anti-inflammatory treatments. Two months later I now have my full range of motion back, pain is minimal and have an non intrusive appliance to realign my jaw to normal for the first time in my life. Although early in the realignment process I have noticed an significant change and am excited for the end result. Dr. Grin and his staff were second to non through the whole process and would recommend to anyone with TMJ or other jaw alignment issues. Steve Green

Dr. Grin is a genius! He diagnosed my problem and got me out of pain on the first visit. His personality is very calming and his office surroundings are serene and soothing. He is punctual, caring, knowledgeable and he listens to his patients and explains every step of treatment very simply. His staff is also efficient and friendly. I suggest to anyone with any kind of facial pain to go to Dr. Grin first and get out of pain fast!
