About us
Martin B. Crombie, DDS
Dr. Crombie graduated from Harbor High School in 1981. He received a Bachelor of Science degree from Bowling Green State University in 1985 before graduating cum laude from The Ohio State University College of Dentistry in 1989. He returned to Ashtabula that year to join his father, Robert B. Crombie, DDS, in their newly remodeled office. A year later, they were joined in practice by Dr. Martin’s wife, Debra A. Balogh-Crombie, DDS, whom he met in dental school and married in 1990.
Eight years later, continually growing practices allowed for the construction of a state-of-the-art dental office completed in March of 2000. Since dental school, Dr. Crombie has taken substantial postgraduate training in orthodontics, serving for two years as an assistant instructor for international lecturer Dr. Brock Rondeau, helping to train other dentists in straightwire orthodontics and functional appliances. He has also completed intensive training in temporomandibular (TMJ) disorders and orofacial pain through The Institute for Advanced TMJ Studies directed by Dr. Steve Olmos with additional training by Dr. Harold Gelb. He is pleased to provide this treatment to his patients for headaches and TMJ disorders. He also pursues continuing education in general dentistry to stay on the leading edge of his profession.
Dr. Crombie is a member of the American Dental Association, Ohio Dental Association, Northeast Ohio Dental Society, Academy of General Dentistry, American Academy of Craniofacial Pain, American Academy of Sleep Medicine, American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine, and the International Association for Orthodontics.

The close relationship between orthodontics, TMJ disorders and sleep apnea/breathing disorders led Dr. Balogh to pursue training for the treatment of Dental Sleep Disorders, including snoring and sleep apnea.
