> Health Content Editor. Editor, not a clinician.

Merve Aydin edits TMJ Specialist Guide’s patient guides. She checks that every clinical claim names a public source, that treatment and cost wording stays cautious, and that each page answers the question in its title without promising a cure. She is an editor, not a clinician, and does not diagnose or treat patients.

## What the editor checks on every guide

- Each clinical statement names a public source: NIDCR, AAOP, AAOMS, ADA, Mayo Clinic or a peer-reviewed review.

- Treatment and cost wording stays conservative; no cure, guaranteed outcome or "best provider" claim is allowed.

- The page answers the question in its title, and the title, meta description and first paragraph agree.

- Directory data is labelled as self-reported NPI taxonomy, never as board certification or proof of TMJ services.

## How corrections work

Send a correction with the page URL and the public source to editorial@tmjspecialistguide.com. Corrections that change a clinical statement are reviewed against the source before the page is updated.
