Around Saugus

Built along the railroad.

Like Old Town Newhall and Castaic, Saugus developed along the valley’s transportation routes, starting with the railroad that gave the area its early shape.

Plum Canyon is one of the Saugus neighborhoods, set in the hills with its own neighborhood park, Plum Canyon Park.

Saugus is one of the four communities that formed the City of Santa Clarita in 1987, together with Valencia, Newhall and Canyon Country.

Bouquet Canyon Road runs through the middle of Saugus and continues north out of the valley into Bouquet Canyon and the Angeles National Forest.

The assessment

What is going on, explained first.

Dr. Haykani looks at your jaw, bite and teeth, asks about symptoms such as jaw discomfort, clicking, clenching or grinding, and explains what she finds. Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) affect the jaw joints and the muscles that move them.

Conservative care and referral

Reversible care first, referral when needed.

Many TMD symptoms improve without invasive treatment, and painless clicking often needs no treatment at all.
