About This Provider

Dr. Qiman Gao is a dentist specializing in orofacial pain at the TMD, Orofacial Pain and Dental Sleep Medicine Clinic, a University of Minnesota School of Dentistry facility in Minneapolis, MN. Orofacial pain became an ADA-recognized dental specialty in March 2020, and this clinic operates at the clinical frontier of that field. The clinic is built on an interdisciplinary model, bringing together dentists, physical therapists, and a psychologist to evaluate and treat jaw pain, neck pain, TMJ disorders, and sleep-related breathing conditions. This structure allows Dr. Gao's dental expertise to work alongside musculoskeletal rehabilitation and behavioral health, addressing each dimension of complex pain conditions. The clinic maintains consultative relationships with oral surgery, neurology, otolaryngology, sleep medicine, physical medicine and rehabilitation, rheumatology, and chronic pain management. For patients who have seen multiple providers without resolution, this depth of collaboration creates a more complete diagnostic and treatment path. Dr. Gao's clinical scope includes TMD treatment, orofacial pain management, and dental sleep medicine using custom oral appliances.
