Exposing him to many different procedures and hands-on training giving a wide range of knowledge and background, from general dental services to orthodontics. Dentistry is a continuously evolving science. The growing computer age allowed research and clinical experience to broaden the knowledge and treatment of head, neck and jaw relations.

He uses electromyography (EMG) and mandibular tracking to identify the degree of muscle dysfunction, as well as diagnose and treat. For Dr. Palmer it is rewarding to have a patient leave the office with healthy teeth and have a dramatic improvement in their head, neck, and posture, which generally decreases pain for the patient.

I've been coming to Dr. Palmer for over 7 years and he does an absolutely thorough job. His positive and bubbly demeanor never fails to put me at ease. The office is clean and gives an amazing family feel. The office staff are highly affectionate and go above and beyond to meet my needs each and every time. I would recommend anyone to come to Dr. Palmer!

amazingly friendly staff. I used to dread going to the dentist and didn't for 2 years because of that fear. When I finally found this office they were quick to help me and get me on track to fixing my teeth.

Dr. Palmer is a genuine and caring doctor. He loves to help patients however he can to make sure they get the relief they need. He doesn't just do dentistry but he also has a passion for helping those experiencing TMJ discomfort. Be sure to stop by or give his office in downtown Franklin, TN a call!

What a tremendous doctor. Dr. Palmer spent time with me while I discussed TMJ and migraine issues that I have been having for years now. Realizing that Botox and countless OTC's were not helping, I sought his guidance. His time spent with me was explaining how he could help treat my symptoms with non-invasive procedures, and throughly explaining multiple options to correct my issues. Dr. Palmer is a thoughtful, thorough doctor that is willing to help if you seek his assistance. I highly recommend his expertise in TMJ/TMD!

I had the unfortunate employment with this scam artist for a few weeks, but felt like an eternity in hell! He is a disgrace and scams people!! If he sees a patient desperate and in pain, he'll drop everything to get cash from them before he even does anything for them. Then what he does is a hoax!! He needs to be shut down!!!!!!!!

As far as I am concerned he is the best. Here is the before and after of the recent work he did on my two front teeth that had been cracked and chipped for years.

My husband has had TMJ for about 18yrs. His jaw would get locked 1-2 or more times a week and his grinding was so severe that it would keep me up at night. Dr. Palmer recommend treatments but we weren't sure about it, until he couldn't eat because his jaw hurt so bad. He has had two treatments now and OMG you will not believe the changes. His jaw hasn't locked, he stoped grinding, and his neck/shoulders have even stopped being so tense. Who new that TMJ affects so much more then just the jaw. Thank you Dr. Palmer from a well rested wife!

Dr. Palmer is a snake oil salesman when it comes to helping for TMJ. He took $4000 of my money up front and did nothing. Didn't return calls when I was in pain. Burnt my tongue making a splint. Tried to get some of money back. Of course I didn't. What he did was not worth $4000. He shouldn't be practicing. It's a shame.

DR. PALMER NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN AND HAVE HIS LICENSES REVOKED! He charged my mother for unwanted services! He is a selfish money hungry dentist! If you haven't had a bad experience, you will! I feel so sorry for anyone that has had to deal with him. He rescheduled on my mother countless times, but then except to keep people coming back! He was not very friendly he was pushy and very touchy! We also waited hours on him while he took lunch. Everything is wrong with this place. Please look else where!!

Great dentist! Truly cares about his patients and there treatment! It was so cool to see how my jaw lined up when opening and closing. I found out that is the reason for my headaches. If you have headaches too you should definitely go see Dr. Palmer!
