A Trusted Resource for Complex Orofacial Pain
Dr Robinson-Smith is dedicated to diagnosing and managing complex, chronic, and often difficult-to-treat conditions of the head, neck, and face.
We partner with referring providers to help solve challenging cases, clarify diagnoses, and support long-term patient care.
When to Refer
Consider referral when your patient presents with:
- Persistent or unexplained facial, jaw, or head pain
- Suspected temporomandibular disorders (TMD)
- Neuropathic pain (e.g., trigeminal neuralgia)

- Chronic headaches with possible orofacial contribution
- Burning mouth syndrome or oral dysesthesia
- Complex oral mucosal or vesiculobullous conditions
- Xerostomia or salivary gland dysfunction
- Symptoms that have not responded to standard treatment
We specialize in cases that are unclear, refractory, or outside typical treatment pathways.
