Dr. Thomas Robbins is a board-certified orofacial pain specialist practicing in Raleigh, NC. He earned his DMD from the University of Pittsburgh and completed a dedicated orofacial pain residency at the University of California, Los Angeles, one of the nation's leading training programs in this specialty. Dr. Robbins holds Diplomate status with the American Board of Orofacial Pain (ABOP), certification number ABOP1573, confirmed active in 2022. Board certification in orofacial pain requires passing rigorous written and oral examinations that go well beyond standard dental school and residency requirements. This credential is held by a limited number of dentists nationwide. Orofacial pain encompasses conditions such as temporomandibular joint disorders, chronic jaw and facial pain, headaches tied to dental and muscular structures, and nerve-related pain in the head and neck. Patients who see an orofacial pain specialist often arrive after years of unsuccessful treatment or misdiagnosis by general dentists and physicians. Dr. Robbins' focused training in both the dental and neurological dimensions of facial pain gives him a diagnostic foundation that general practitioners are not equipped to match.
