About This Provider

Dr. Saranya Varun is a board-certified Diplomate of the American Board of Orofacial Pain (ABOP Certification #ABOP1496, 2020), holding one of the most rigorous credentials available in the diagnosis and management of chronic jaw, facial, and head pain. She earned a Master of Science in TMD and Orofacial Pain from the University of Minnesota, where she also completed an Advanced Education Clinical Training Residency. Prior to her Minnesota training, she earned a Master of Dental Surgery in Oral Medicine and Radiology at Manipal University in India. This dual graduate-level background gives Dr. Varun a diagnostic perspective that bridges dental and medical pain evaluation, which is critical for patients whose pain has not responded to standard dental or medical treatment. As an Associate Provider at Minnesota Head & Neck Pain Clinic, PA, she practices within a 16-provider interdisciplinary team that includes physicians, physical therapists, a health psychologist, and health coaches. Her treatment philosophy centers on conservative, non-surgical care as the first line of approach, combining evidence-based techniques with patient self-management training to build durable, long-term relief.
