Show Notes

According to the Journal of Rheumatology (Wolfe et al 2005), “jaw pain is present in about 19% of patients with RA and OA, and is primarily a marker for a general pain increase and symptom sensitivity problem” PMID: 16331775


I brought on today’s guest to talk about jaw pain, jaw arthritis, and any secondary pain associated with it because it is something that is rarely talked about. 


Dr. Liana Sved is a physical therapist and myofascial therapist who specializes in helping people with jaw pain. Research has shown that jaw pain can be common with conditions such as osteoarthritis. Liana shares today: 


  1. Importance of your tongue in finding jaw pain relief
  2. Simple exercises you can do to help your jaw pain
  3. Myths and misconceptions around jaw pain
  4. Who are the best practitioners to seek out for jaw pain
