Jaw Pain and Headaches

Dr. Jonathan Taves Season 1 Episode 136

Do you ever wake up with morning temple pain or have jaw pain and clicking? In this episode, Dr. Taves explains the biomechanics of the jaw, how the muscles in the neck/shoulders also impact the jaw, and the importance of airway function. Covid has also drastically impacted the increase in jaw symptoms due to mask wearing. Masks impact the actual mechanics of the jaw and restrict movement which has increased the prevalence of jaw pain over the past few years.
