About Dr. Cheung
Academic training.
Human-centered care.
Dr. Andy Cheung is a board-certified orofacial pain specialist focused on helping patients with complex jaw pain, facial pain, headache-related symptoms, temporomandibular disorders, bruxism, and sleep-related breathing concerns.
Professional Identity
His work is grounded in specialty diagnosis, evidence-based care, interdisciplinary collaboration, and a commitment to helping patients regain function and quality of life.
Orofacial pain patients often arrive after months or years of uncertainty. Many have been told their symptoms are dental, muscular, neurologic, orthopedic, stress-related, sleep-related, or difficult to explain. Dr. Cheung’s approach begins with careful listening, diagnostic clarity, and a structured plan.
The goal is not only to reduce pain, but to help patients better understand what is contributing to their symptoms and how to move forward with greater confidence.
Clinical Focus
Complex pain and function.
Evaluation and management of temporomandibular disorders, chronic jaw pain, facial pain, headache-related orofacial pain, neuropathic pain, bruxism, and oral appliance-related concerns.
Dental Sleep Medicine
Sleep-related breathing care.
Evidence-informed care for patients with snoring, sleep-related breathing concerns, and oral appliance therapy needs, in collaboration with physicians and sleep medicine providers when appropriate.
Research & Innovation
Science-driven progress.
Academic interest in craniofacial health, regenerative science, extracellular vesicles, oral appliance design, and thoughtful innovation that may improve care for complex patients.
Care Philosophy
Clarity first. Function next. Hope throughout.
Pain and poor sleep can make everyday life feel smaller. They can affect work, relationships, eating, speaking, exercise, mood, and the ability to feel present with family.
Dr. Cheung’s philosophy is to identify the factors contributing to pain or dysfunction, explain them clearly, and develop a plan that is realistic, evidence-based, and individualized.
For some patients, care may involve education, habit awareness, oral appliance therapy, medication management, physical therapy collaboration, behavioral strategies, imaging review, interdisciplinary referral, or long-term supportive care.
