Dr. Anthony P. Urbanek DDS, MS, MD
Tony is a double degree Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon with his DDS and MS in Anatomy and Cell Biology from Indiana and his MD and internship/residency from Vanderbilt. While at Vanderbilt he held a research fellowship with the National Institutes of Dental and Craniofacial Research focusing on laser induced intrauterine surgery creating animal models with facial growth anomalies.
He has been in private practice in Nashville for the past 46 years focusing on the most complex types of maxillofacial surgery.
During his long career he founded charity medical clinics in both Haiti and Jamaica and is proud to have 54 years as a private pilot prompting many “hold my beer” moments.
Based on 10 years of research, he discovered the common denominator for TMJ/TMD and is now the president and CEO of TMJ Services which has developed a network of doctors dedicated to the non-surgical solution for this devastating and very common disease.
Tony’s greatest joy in life is spending time with his three grown children, six grandchildren, one great grandchild and his wife Ann.
