I have TMJ, I was diagnosed 7 years ago but have never had the finances to do much about it. I get so many migraines and headaches that I don’t have strength or time to function outside of maintaining survival. I wish so bad I could be a patient of Dr. Dwight Jennings.

[@jacobferris5827]

Very interesting podcast Dave. As a current 3rd year dental student at NYU I can say that we have came across substance P in a couple lectures but never went into the whole body implications it can have. Will definitely look into this further and share this podcast to colleagues.

[@douglasc37]

Very nice, taking a very complex topic and showing it can be verbalized into easy concepts and wisdom. Dr. Jennings I have known for many years and he provides outstanding care for such pathology.

[@misslydialove]

This information is blowing my mind!! I love you Dave! All your interviews with these incredible minds in the health and wellness world are so fascinating and relevant! & Dr Jennings is such a rock star of a dentist... so cool. Thank you for all you are doing.

[@HolaItsM3]

Wow I've had tmj for years now, and some days I wake up with a sore jaw, knee pain and back pain 😥. Thanks for this Dave, great info!

[@holteenderrob]

Thank you for this informative interview Dave, some really useful stuff. I suffer with tmj and have never looked into the bite alignment or substance p control so I've got some interesting reading coming up! I'm going to share this on the uk facebook group for tmj. Keep up the good work. Peace out

[@kinandtonics]

Amazing, thank you for sharing an incredible lot of information. I know and refer too a wonderful dentist and buteyko breathing specialist on the Gold Coast in Australia for similar reasons as covered in this talk. I'm so very glad for the information he contributes to my clients health and look forward to the day where this level of integration in health care is standard and we all extend our practitioner networks to ensure the most comprehensive patient care for OPTIMAL results. Thank you Dave.

[@travellerjames3139]

Hi Katy, Can you recommend this dentist?

[@icitizenoftheplanet]

amazing information! thank you so much! would be so handy to have a link in the notes or one to click on before the tube ends to see the "bonus video". Perfect interview setting and the best quality production on this you tube, made watching and listening so easy.

[@jazzel70]

Hi dave, Can you do a podcast where you talk about the importance of the atlas bone and atlas bone subluxation ? I have been doing some research and it seems that the haw and the atlas bone are both very essential components for our overall wellbeing

[@blueteam50]

Great video! There's a lot to think about (and learn more) here. I just received your your book in the mail, only just started reading it it but so far I like it. Nice concise sections also make it easier reading. Thanks, keep up the good work.

[@ArielPolicano]

The best podcast to date. Very far reaching and meaningful info here. Thank you.

[@pepodurian4873]

when i drink too much coffee my left jaw side gets really tense which triggers my tinnitus like crazy ...so my thinking was to stop consuming caffeine of any sort -

[@finerday]

Are there any other dentists/ specialists like this in Atlanta Georgia area?

[@freddygolzofficial4129]

Dr. Anthony Simms is incredible- and in Atlanta

[@acousticalien]

Which expander does he use for upper is it tooth borne or bone borne?

[@kathrynparker983]

Anybody know if there's someone to this work in western NC? I need HELP! Thanks.

[@zeldamaniac3188]

are there drugs that reduce substance P temporarily? 30:00 minutes

[@dreaminginnoother]

He looks like Jon Benjamin. I have tmj problems along with many others he has mentioned which makes me very interested, but then again where's all his research?

[@homeimprovement2352]

Does anyone know of the dentist who does this work on the East coast? or Charlotte area?

[@ThoughtProvokingVlogs]

Im confused. We need more or less cayenne?

[@dmarie1708]

How about Pierre robin sequence in infants ?

[@annachadwick825]

The truth is, TMJ with its discomfort could be put an end to without irreversible result.

[@annachadwick825]

[@ravennafawn3343]

Isn't this the same concept as mewing?

[@baconlatte]

I am trying to figure out how the two compare. Seems mewing is simply about using the tongue as natural palate expander, but can you really mew your way out of a problem that did not involve the tongue originally, and that has been in place for years or decades? And how long will that take

[@jocelmas1]

I was just thinking the same. I am looking lots of KZbin info since, my ortho doctor said I will need lowerjaw surgery and I am hoping to find other solution closer to me-In NM....I am hoping The Angel will help me!!! My case is a narrow palate from sucking my tum which gave me an overbite..I was all excited with Dr. Mew"s Orthogandics info, and I send him an e-mail....Someone from his office, said they work with people between 18-30y.o. and I would need to go to UK.... Can I (a Latina with 46y.o., that just started using braces because doctor recommendations), get help without surgery?

[@AntonSlavik]

This is invaluable information to me and I love your work... but dude.. you look a bit strange here. Dare I say, you look stoned.

[@parasite34]

Dave is usually the opposite, i guess he's trying to slow things down on purpose? lol

[@j5hp]

I have had this same observation of Dave in several of his videos...

[@enocherone]

Silver Pill he is definitely baked lol. so obvious
