Dr. Carstensen is one of the few doctors that I actually like going to because he is patient and makes sure you are informed about your decisions. One of the best experiences i have had with any medical professional, for many reasons.
“Great Dr.”

Great experience overall with staff and Dr. Carstensen. I already wore a nightguard for teeth grinding, so it wasn't too difficult to adjust to a device in my mouth while I sleep. I've tried medical procedure and CPAP, neither worked for me. I've been using my appliance now for one week and have slept great, feel refreshed/rested, and got a great response from my sleep partner.
“Finally a solution that works!”
