How we can help
It’s understandable to wander how headaches and migraines could possibly be remedied by dentists. Often, tension in the facial muscles and headaches and migraines can be caused by dental issues. If you grind or clench your teeth, for example, this can increase pressure on the muscles surrounding the temporomandibular joint and contribute to headaches and pain in the neck and shoulders. Our highly trained dentists have expertise in providing treatments, which can prevent tooth grinding and other dental issues, which may put you at risk of headaches or migraines.
One technique we use to alleviate pain caused by grinding the teeth is using a splint or a guard to prevent contact between the upper and lower sets of teeth. If you wear a customised guard at night, there’s no risk of the top and bottom arches coming together and this protects your teeth and prevents muscular pain and migraines.
