Chronic headaches are a problem for many thousands of Americans, yet the vast majority never fully pinpoints the cause of their pain. Headaches can be caused by stress, poor posture, how you sleep, how many hours per day you spend looking at a computer screen, or any number of variables.

They do not actually keep your jaws from clenching or moving into painful positions while you sleep. Dr. Kodish prefers to use a tension suppression system designed to minimize clenching and grinding. Patients using this device not only save their teeth from damage caused by clenching and grinding, but may also sleep better, and wake up feeling refreshed and headache-free.

TMJ may or may not be causing your chronic headaches, but you should consult with a neuromuscular dentist before resigning to a life of headache pain.
