Are you able to help me with my headaches?
Absolutely! We are highly experienced in managing headaches in Perth.

Headaches can be debilitating, sometimes bad enough for people not to enjoy or be able to complete normal duties.

An estimated 80% of all headaches occur from muscle tension, which primarily originates from bruxism (teeth grinding and clenching teeth), which in turn is usually caused by a sleeping disorder such as sleep apnoea.

As dentists, we are experts in assisting you with headache related symptoms. We carry out a comprehensive assessment of your symptoms and dental concerns. A sleep study can be performed if we suspect you have a sleep disorder.

What treatment can be performed for my headaches?
Depending on the cause, the management of headaches includes:

Treating the sleep disorder, if it is applicable
At times, dental work in correcting the bite may assist your headaches
Providing you a night guard, or occlusal splint
Xray on Ipad of Teeth
Why do my ears hurt with jaw joint issues?
Most importantly during growth and development the structures of the ear, the TM Joint and the jaw muscles originate from similar cells.

If the jaw muscles get overused or stressed, they can become tight, and cause tightening of the surrounding muscles.

This can lead to tension in the inner ear and cause ringing in the ears and/or TMJ ear pain.

The human jaw joint has a lot of very sensitive tissue that hurts when it is compressed, especially during opening and closing.

The tension in the muscles and tissues is usually responsible for this compression.
