Tension Headache and Poor Bite Treatment.
April 21st, 2010 | 
Author: This patient has been suffering from headaches and has sought treatment from five dentists in the course of two years. She was told that it was just because she grinds her teeth and they couldn’t do anything for her. Tension Headaches and migraines are very common when the bite is altered many times with dental procedures and crowns that aren’t adjusted properly. Missing teeth, crowns, bridges, and even fillings that aren’t properly adjusted after they have been placed will stress the muscles, teeth and TMJ.
The body attempts to alter the shape and size of these restorations but in an attempt to do so the muscles become stressed and this affects the jaw joint and teeth.
Things to look for are:
- Sensitive teeth especially when waking up.
- loose teeth
- headaches which originate from the temporal area on the side of the head.
- neck pain
- Migraine pain
- Clicking in the jaw which leads to jaw pain.
If these listed symptoms describe you and if it may have started after braces, after a filling, crown or bridge has been placed then give us a call at (586)247-3500. More than likely we can help you. You can also email us at Info@TheGentleDentist.com.

Biting pains caused by improperly fitting crowns
Robert Antolak DDS, Shelby Twp. Dentist is able to take of a bite problem by adjusting fixed bridges, caps, crowns and previously placed dental work. Many jaw problems, headaches, TMJ and other issues take place when the bite is not adjusted after their insertion. The muscles usually get tight and things just don’t feel right. This simple solution can help with going back to a dentist who just says that “everything is fine”. We listen to your problems and take care of them.
Second opinions are sometimes important when you know that there is a probem that isn’t getting satisfactory results. Give us a call at (586)247-3500 or email us at info@thegentledentist.com
