If you live in Burlington and have frequent migraine, the first step is a diagnosis from your physician. Your physician can confirm the type of headache, rule out other causes and talk with you about your options. If you also have jaw pain, clenching or grinding, a dental assessment can look at the jaw joint and chewing muscles.
Questions you may want to ask your physician
• Is my headache migraine, and how often does it happen?
• What options do you recommend for me, and what are the risks?
• Would it make sense to include a dentist in my care for jaw symptoms?
At Nabeta Dentistry, treatment for migraine is offered only for migraine diagnosed by a physician, in coordination with the patient’s physician. Before any neuromodulator treatment, Dr. Jared Nabeta or Dr. Kaitlin McCann reviews the risks, options and alternatives with you so you can make an informed decision. Results vary from person to person. Some people with frequent headaches also clench or grind their teeth, or have jaw pain. If that sounds familiar, mention it to your physician and to your dentist.
