This place is great. Dr. Hyatt and his wonderful staff fixed my TMJD issues in just a few short months. I was suffering intensely before I was referred to them by my regular dentist who couldn’t solve my problem. Dr. Hyatt fixed my issues without surgery or pain medication. I highly recommend this Dentist and his staff.

I have been going to see Dr Hyatt for over 30 years. His knowledge and dedication to his work are the reasons I still have my teeth. He has done many gum graphs, a bone graph and numerous cleanings and always wonderful results. His staff are as dedicated to dental health as he is. On a personal level, I enjoy my office visits. I go three times a year and its like visiting friends.

Exceptional, remarkable, outstanding, and the most to me a life changer. Dr. Hyatt changed my life. This man’s profession is just important as a Cardiologist, Neurologist, or even an Oncologist. Why is that you may ask? Here is a back story of my battle with TMJ and constant grinding away of my teeth. Teenage years approached me. Somewhere along the way I began clinching my jaw. My Mother kept telling me to take care of my teeth. Beware of when I clinched and to stop doing it. I remember her telling me many times “you are clinching your jaw; you are grinding your teeth away”. My dentist started me wearing night guards. This worked fine for nights but I was unaware how much I was grinding and clinching during the day. My headaches were unbearable. I was chewing through the expensive night guards every year and my teeth were slowly going away. Years pass by. My dentist never suggested any other treatment than the night guards even with my teeth getting stress fractures from the constant pressure. Back to my mom she told me enough is enough. Ask the dentist for a referral to go see Dr. Hyatt. She told me Dr. Hyatt saved her teeth when she was going through the “change of life”. So I did. First day meeting Dr. Hyatt I was nervous and to be honest a little ashamed I waited so long. I loved his honesty and direct instructions. After his very in depth exam he looked directly in my eyes and said I can fix you. I met with the staff and talked about the cost. All out of pocket insurance did not cover my care. I thought back to my mom and the yearly cost of night guards, bad headaches, and constant jaw pain. I handed them my credit card and said let do it. I made many visits to Dr. Hyatt wearing different guards though out the day and different ones at night. With Dr. Hyatt adjusting my bite with polishers, gridding equipment, and the smell of my teeth going up in the air I was thinking to myself, I came in here with very little teeth and I will leave here not have anything left. Fast forward a year or two, Dr. Hyatt told me his job was finished. Sounds weird, but I was kind of sad. I was not going to see this man again which fixed my problems. Now let’s fast forward eight years, yes eight years. I was eating dinner when I felt a tooth chip. I thought to myself, oh no here I go again I will start grinding and clinching all over. I thought if I go to my dentist he will repair it and my bite will get off and my storm will began. I looked up Dr. Hyatt phone number in hopes he was still in practice. To a blessing I heard “Thank you for calling Dr. Hyatt office”. Today I left his office. My bite is still spot on! I am still wearing the same night guard he gave me eight years ago and looks barely wore. My TMJ pain, gridding, and clinching is still gone for eight years now. The only regret I have is not come to him years ago. Dr. John L. Hyatt I do not know if you read these reviews but if you do, I thank you with the deepest gratitude. Until we meet again, GOD bless you!

I’ve worked with Dr. Hyatt and his staff to fix my TMD problems over the past year. I was referred here by my dentist. This office became like a family. They all were extremely personable and helpful. Anytime I needed something or had a change in symptoms, I could call and seek the help I needed quickly.I highly recommend Dr. Hyatt for any and all TMJ/TMD needs.

I recently had gum grafts done by Dr. Hyatt. He, Shannon, and the entire staff are the most friendly and caring group I have encountered. They were so gentle during the procedure that I actually dozed off! They are extremely supportive and go above and beyond with post op care. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Hyatt and his staff!

When you call Dr Hyatt’s office, you get your first pleasant experience when you talk with his office staff. Always friendly and helpful. Makes you want to come to his office! Then you come in for your appointment and meet the dental staff. Again, friendliness all the way. While you are sitting in the dental chair, you get close up views of a variety of birds visiting the bird feeders - cardinals, goldfinch, purple finch, thrush, woodpeckers, and more. And, oh yeah, the dentist, Dr Hyatt. He is, guess what, friendly and competent. He explained my procedures, which I was nervous about. He put me at ease and I wasn’t nervous when it was time for procedure. It was virtually painless, took very little time, and healing was a breeze. I was given good advice for post surgical care and it was effective. If I need anything else done, I will happily go back to Dr Hyatt.

I highly recommend Dr. John Hyatts office. The entire staff is very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Shannon was extremely helpful with our insurance issues. Our insurance denied our claim several times and it eventually had to be appealed. Shannon helped me each time they needed additional information and even did the appeal for us. I probably wouldve given up and never gotten reimbursed if she hadnt been there to help me. They already had their money, so she didnt really have a reason to continue to help me...other than going above and beyond to help a patient. That really shows that they care. I also had to call her personal cell phone at 9:00 at night because my daughter was having an issue that scared me. She answered and talked me through what I needed to do. I would recommend Dr. John Hyatts office to anyone and everyone. They are wonderful!!

After college my teeth were in bad shape. Dr. Hyatt worked wonders and literally saved my teeth. I have come to this awesome Periodontist twice a year for 39 years and am very grateful for the work he did, and the continuing care he provides. I wish I could give him a hundred stars. Awesome work!!!

I am very satisfied with my treatment by Dr. Hyatt. As he explains, the joint involved is very complex and the solution differs for every individual. He spent every visit analyzing my bite and coming up with an appliance to correct it. Were fortunate that we dont have to go far to receive excellent, professional care.

This practice is wonderful!! I suffered with migraines for over 20 years. I had at least 3 a month. Now Ive had 2 in 6 month. I never knew TMJ could cause so many problems but now Im almost migraine and pain free! Dr Hyatt and his staff are the best around. They are very friendly and help you any way they possibly can. I would recommend them to anybody!

Review №33

I had a dull, constant headache for over a year. Last year I had an occasion where I felt like I pulled a muscle in my jaw. I didnt think anything of it, because it went away. Until this year, when I woke up one morning and could not open my mouth because I was in so much pain. After being referred to Dr. Hyatt, I found out about TMD. I wore a mouth piece for three months and it was like a miracle. Due to most likely grinding my teeth at night, stress in my life, and my jaw out of alignment, I was in pain most of the time. Not anymore! With just a little discomfort and commitment on my part, I feel great! Dr. Hyatt and his staff are incredible! Thank you, Julianne

I have been a patient of Dr. Hyatts for many years and am delighted to have the opportunity to comment on his care and that of the staff. My situation is a complicated one involving temporomandibular joint disorder on both sides of the jaw. Dr. Hyatt accurately diagnosed the problem when many other dentists and medical doctors had failed to do so. Dr. Hyatt has directed my steps and walked beside my husband and myself through three jaw surgeries in Augusta, Georgia and multiple oral appliances that Dr. Hyatt has made to address the various and changing joint issues. Dr. Hyatt and the staff have ALWAYS been kind, supportive, encouraging and wise in their work with me. They have gone above and beyond in addressing any unexpected issues, working me into their already filled schedules when necessary. Neither my husband nor myself will ever be able to thank Dr. Hyatt or his staff adequately for what they have done for me and continue to do for me as my situation continues. I can confidently recommend Dr. Hyatt to others who may be seeking an honest, knowledgeable evaluation of a periodontic or temporomandibular problem.

Review №42

We were referred to Dr. Hyatt by an oral surgeon because our 16-year-old daughter was in excruciating pain. Her jaw was locked, and she could barely eat. Dr. Hyatt immediately diagnosed her as having a displaced disk in her temporomandibular joint (TMJ). He put her jaw back in place and made appliances for her to wear at all times (one for eating, one for sleeping, and one for all other times). Within a week, she noticed a reduction in pain, and within two months, the pain was completely gone, even when she opened her mouth as far as possible. He explained that the appliances are holding the disk in place so that the tissue behind it can heal, so she has continued to wear the appliances for several more months. She says they are all comfortable, and we barely notice the ones she wears during the day. We couldnt have asked for a better result, and Dr. Hyatt and his staff are professional and kind. We highly recommend them!

For over 30 years I have been a patient of Dr Hyatts and his staff. Without their outstanding care, I probably would have lost my teeth many years ago. I have had several occasions in which I needed to be seen sooner than my appointed time because of an exacerbation of my disease. thankfully, I have been seen and treated and accordingly.Thankfully, their treatment and education has helped me maintain my gum disease and keep my teeth!!I have the highest regard for these professionals and recommend them highly.Karen Levinson

5.0 star rating 6/30/2016First to ReviewI ignored the fact I needed gum grafts for several years. When I finally made an appointment with Dr. Hyatt, I found out I needed grafts on 15 teeth. After hearing horror stories about grafts, i was very apprehensive about having this done. However, after the surgery was completed and after following all the instructions given me by Dr. Hyatt and his staff, I found my worries were exaggerated. Other than some minor discomfort, this was a breeze. I highly recommend this doctor.

Review №49

I can’t say enough great things about Dr Hyatt and his staff after spending a year with them getting my locking jaw issue corrected. It was a time consuming process that required many appointments but in the end it was worth it because my jaw does not lock up anymore and surgery was my only other option. Thank you Dr Hyatt and Staff!!
