One of the questions we frequently get is this -- I get headaches and occasional ringing in the ears. My doctor tells me there is nothing wrong. What is causing this?
Once a physician has ruled out certain diseases, and the discomfort continues, the right dentist may help. Tension headaches are due to muscle pain in the head and neck region. These muscles are involved in chewing. The chewing mechanism involves not only the teeth and the jaw, but also muscles as high as your temple area and neck. Frequently, the way your teeth are positioned can lead to extra stresses on teeth and the muscles which move your jaw. Many patients have found significant relief with proper treatment.
