What We Treat
TMJ/TMD
Temporo Mandibular Joint Disorder
If your patient is experiencing jaw pain, frequent headaches, or joint clicking when chewing, they may be suffering from TMJ dysfunction. Without timely intervention, symptoms can progress and negatively impact quality of life. Trust the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Utah and Dr. Gunnerson to provide expert, non-invasive care and lasting relief.
Sleep Apnea
If your patient reports loud snoring, gasping for air during sleep, or persistent daytime fatigue, these may be indicators of obstructive sleep apnea. Early referral is key. At the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Utah, Dr. Gunnerson and his team provide targeted, non-CPAP treatment options to help your patients breathe better and regain restorative sleep.
Pediatric Care
Restful sleep and proper breathing are essential to a child’s development. If you notice signs like mouth breathing or poor sleep, refer to Dr. Gunnerson at the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Utah. We offer gentle, non-invasive treatments—combining jaw alignment and muscle therapy to support growing patients.

Meet Dr. Mindy Lunceford
Your Myofunctional Therapy Specialist & RDH in Payson, UT
Since graduating from Dental Hygiene school in 1997, I've been on a mission to help smiles shine a little brighter and lives feel a little healthier. In 2020, I added myofunctional therapy to my toolkit, blending science and care to support both kids and adults on their path to better health. There's nothing quite like seeing someone thrive-and knowing you played a small part in that transformation. I've been joyfully married since 1995, and life has blessed us with five amazing adult children and two sweet grandchildren who keep our hearts full and our schedules delightfully busy. When I'm not working, you'll likely find me with soil on my hands in the garden, a spoon in my hand in the kitchen, or a suitcase by the door—ready for the next adventure. I have a soft spot for baking (especially with real, high-quality vanilla), musicals, cozy theater nights, and wandering through beautiful places. Switzerland and Japan are among my favorite travel destinations, but a piece of my heart will always belong to Grenada, West Indies, where I lived for nearly two years. My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving-because food, family, and gratitude are the best combination. I believe caramel apples are a perfectly acceptable snack at any time of year, that shrimp and steak are better when shared, and that nothing beats the flavor of a sun-warmed, freshly picked peach. And if you ask me what my favorite color is, I'll say: the colors of sunrise and sunset—because that's when the world feels most magical.
