Migraines and severe headaches can also be caused by muscle tension related to your bite and jaw. The TMJ (temporomandibular joint) enables your jaw to open, close, and move from side to side. When the TMJ is not functioning properly, it can cause many painful issues, including dizziness, earaches, neck pain, and – you guessed it – tension headaches and migraines.
If you suffer from frequent headaches, jaw pain, and/or migraines, talk to Dr. Giesy about your symptoms during your next visit. He will examine the alignment of your jaw joints, bite, and teeth. Digital x-rays, if needed, can also be reviewed and may indicate the source of your tension.
