Taking my best friend Brett to Dr. Vizcarra at AZ Sleep & TMJ Solutions was one of the best decisions we've ever made. Brett has struggled silently with severe TMJ for over a decade -- pain that has recently become unbearable and affected every part of his life. We had seen countless doctors over the years, but no one ever seemed to offer real help or hope... until now. From the moment we stepped through the door, we felt something different. Jenn, the office coordinator, greeted us with such a genuine smile and warmth that it immediately eased the stress and anxiety we had walked in with. Her kindness set the tone for everything that followed -- and let me say, it only got better from there. Laura, the dental assistant, is truly a calming presence. She was gentle, professional, and made sure Brett felt comfortable every step of the way as we prepared to meet with Dr. Vizcarra. And then there's Dr. Vizcarra -- an absolute revelation. She is not only incredibly knowledgeable and skilled, but she also possesses the rare ability to truly connect with her patients. She didn't just speak at us -- she spoke to us. With empathy. With clarity. With respect. She explained complex issues in a way that made sense, and most importantly, she listened. For the first time in years, Brett felt heard, seen, and cared for. Dr. Vizcarra recommended a custom night guard, and after just two nights, Brett began to feel genuine relief. It's been nothing short of incredible. To watch someone I care so deeply about finally get real, tangible help after years of suffering -- I truly have no words. What this team offers goes far beyond treatment. It's care in the truest sense of the word -- thoughtful, compassionate, and deeply human. It's rare to come across people who not only excel in their field but also put so much heart into what they do. Dr. Vizcarra and her team have made an unforgettable impact, and we are endlessly thankful for the hope and healing they've given Brett. They are everything healthcare should be -- and more. read more

First I want to say that I have never met a more caring and knowledgeable staff. You almost "feel at home" there. Dr. Vizcarra is amazing, gentle, extremely thorough and most learned on the subject of TMJ. Thank you so much! read more

My daughter was a patient of Dr. Vizcarra's and we had a very negative experience. I have reached out to her with no reply and she has taken zero responsibility for her splints creating an underbite. Please do your research before going to a dentist for TMJ. Hope this helps someone else. read more

I am very impressed with AZ Sleep & TMJ Solutions. Dr. Viscarra is SO wonderful. (She is also my dentist) I recieved my nightguard for TMJ a few days ago. I am adjusting to it much quicker than I thought. I am so relieved that I will save my teeth and no longer have that horrible jaw, neck pain when I wake up. I have noticed a difference already. Hopefully, this will also eliminate the occasional migraine. Dr. Viscarra is so knowledgable, spends as much time as needed to explain diagnosis, options, and the whole process. The staff in both offices are so friendly and really caring. I highly recommend AZ Sleep & TMJ Solutions. *Edited February 24th: I have had my night guard for 4 weeks. I have a much better quality of life. My neck and jaw pain are gone. I am sleeping better. I am so happy I made the decision to go forward with the night guard. read more

How do I even begin a review for an office that has truly changed my life? No words will ever do this office justice but I'm going to try. I have suffered from severe TMJ for awhile, my jaw would lock shut and I have holes in my teeth from clenching so hard for so long. I was not sleeping well due to the clenching, and as an active person in my mid 20's, I was napping throughout the day every day and thought it was completely normal. I am extremely claustrophobic so that made my experiences with lock jaw significantly scarier and I would have frequent panic attacks. I even was terrified to go to sleep because it only ever happened overnight. I was told by a doctor prior to finding this office that this was a forever thing and I would lock and be in pain forever - que yet another panic attack. I found Dr Sara after researching TMJ specialists and knew I was in good hands the second I walked through the door. Sandy, Laura, and Dr Sara have all had a hand in genuinely changing my life and they will forever have a special place in my heart. It has been just under a year since my first appointment and I have not locked in that time, I am completely pain free, I'm sleeping through the night and waking up feeling rested, I'm no longer napping throughout the day, I'm much more energetic, and much much happier. Going to Dr. Sara was the best decision I've ever made and I would highly encourage anyone who is experiencing jaw pain to schedule an appointment. Their level of patient care and drive to help each individual live a pain free life is truly unmatched. Thank you to Dr Sara and staff! read more

Thank God I found Dr. Vizcarra and her team she helped me so much in one visit for my TMJ issues I was very nervous about the exam as I had so much pain but her bedside manner is so great I easily felt comfortable with her and confident in her recommendations She listens, is very caring and intelligent as is her staff I drive all the way from the west valley to see her and very happy to do so she is worth the drive, I will also be coming to see her office for general dentistry as well I was so impressed with her read more

Meeting Dr. S. Vizcarra and her staff has been life changing. Everyone here truly listens and they show passion for their field & positions. To be introduced to this sleep solution has been eye opening. A small device has been customized to reduce my snoring, alleviate my neck pain & jaw clicking which has allowed me to sleep better and reduce fatigue & tension. In just one month, I'm a believer in results! This device is comfortable and an easy part of my routine. I learned so much from everyone in this modern office, including suggested supplements & stretching techniques. I love that everyone already remembers my name. My husband and I thank Pinnacle Peak Dentistry for this amazing Referral. read more

Dr. Sara is so good at diagnostics! My TMJ was a continuous issue, impacting some other health issues I have with my neck and shoulder. After starting treatment, my jaw pain was significantly reduced. Dr. Sara has given me the tools on how to self-monitor and keep my condition from getting to the point it was when she first noticed my problem. By following the protocol outlined by Dr. Sara and her staff, I was cleared of any lingering sleep apnea issues, and now follow a routine that has me in better shape and able to manage my TMJ situation. All instructions were explained and demonstrated clearly, her staff was very patient with all my questions, and even all the insurance quagmire was handled with minimum hassle. While I realize that my condition is one that will never be completely cleared, I feel secure in that Dr. Sara will be there to help keep me on the path to good health. Kudos to her and her team! read more

Dr. Vizcarra is amazing and thorough! I have been suffering since February of 2020 with tmj related issues and have seen 2 other specialist before finally feeling I got the care I deserved. This is a one stop shop for sleep and tmj issues. She will spend the time necessary with you to figure out your issues and develop a plan that will get you back to life before the pain. read more

This is a wonderful caring Dr. The office staff is fantastic. We should have come here first. Would recommend with the highest regard.

Dr. Sara is the best TMJ dentist in the valley! I have been to two other credible TMJ dentists and neither one was able to accomplish what Dr. Sara did. I had continuous pain in my lower teeth and gums, in addition to constant headaches, neck pain and tremor. The pain in my lower teeth and gums is completely gone and my headaches, neck pain and pain are substantially reduced! I strongly recommend Dr. Sara and her team for your TMJ problems! They are very compassionate and truly care about you. Beth E. read more

I visited Sarah in 2020 for TMJ issues. She did a good job of relieving my tmj, but was a nightmare to deal with in regards to insurance. I waited almost 1 year exactly for my money back, during a period of high inflation (money worth less). They claimed it was my insurances fault for not handling the claim correctly. My insurance never changed their answer as to why this happened. She claimed she was out of network with Blue Cross Blue Shield of AZ, only to find out She was in network. After a long period of back and forth conversations, (several hours, conference calls, etc) she finally told me that unknown to her , a third party signed the contract with BLUE CROSS that they had hired. I asked if she called the police as that is a crime (forgery) and she got defensive and told me "were not going there". I was lied to for a year, and ultimately given the money back. I had to pull teeth (no pun intended) to get it back as Blue Cross had sent them a check they never cashed. She agreed to a contract with them and didn't like what they were paying her. After paying me back, she said that she would no longer see me as there was no "trust". I didn't break the trust, you did by putting me through all of that bullshit. I called them recently as my bottom TMJ tray broke, simply asking if I could get the phone number of company who makes them as I still had a dental impression to send them and get a replacement (without Sarah's help in office) sent to me directly. Never got a call back from those salty old women. Do not use her if money is an issue or you want to wait forever to get your money back. Sandy was pretty chill, but everyone else is disingenuous. Her dentist is practicing under her license yet charges more than double of other dentist in this area. I was warner by family not to use her, I figured give her a chance to prove them wrong. Well, family was spot on about her. Another family member stopped going to her because of all the issues with her billing policies. You've been warned. read more

Dr Sara is amazing. I am in the dental field and work with many general dentists. I chose Dr Viscarra after hearing great things and she did not disappoint. I highly recommend this office. The staff was stellar as well! read more
