He was undergraduate vice president of the Alpha Omega Dental Fraternity for three years. He completed a residency in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, at Los Angeles County U.S.C. Medical Center, in 1987. U.S.C. was the largest teaching hospital west of the Mississippi and a designated Level One trauma center. The program was significantly oriented towards reconstructive surgery of the facial region, including soft tissues of the head and neck region. The program included extensive training to harvest bone from the cranium, ribs and hip to reconstruct the facial skeletal structures. He performed numerous reconstructive surgeries of the TMJ during his residency. Dr. Sternlieb was in private practice in Beverly Hills from 1987 until 1993. During this time he was on staff in the Department of Surgery at Cedars Sinai Medical Center, in Los Angeles. Dr. Sternlieb developed a practice sub-specialty focused on the diagnosis and treatment of the TMJ. Cutting edge techniques in the eighties and nineties, such as meniscus repair or removal (with alloplastic or interpositional flap reconstruction), partial or total joint reconstruction, arthroscopic joint surgery as well as in office joint lavage were routinely utilized. Dr. Sternlieb relocated to the Coachella valley in 1993, and has been in private practice, in Rancho Mirage, to date. He is on staff in the Department of Surgery at Eisenhower Medical Center, in Rancho Mirage. He has continued to treat TMJ disorders via various therapeutic modalities, including minimally or noninvasive means, including “Therapeutic Magnetic Resonance” (“TMR”).

He has enthusiastically committed himself to partake in the study of the therapeutic efficacy of adult stem cells for TMJ disorders, with its potential to revolutionize treatment.
