Headache Prevention

Wausau Dentist

Many Americans experience tension or migraine headaches not due to sinuses or other issues but related to their teeth. Bruxism, better known as teeth grinding, can cause face or jaw pain and clicking, deterioration of teeth, tension and migraine headaches, neck pain, and other problems. By accurately diagnosing bruxism, Dr. Kim and his assistants aid in headache prevention often with as simple a device as a plastic retainer-like object that prevents the teeth from grinding together while one sleeps. When the teeth aren't grinding together, headaches don't occur during the day. Dr. James Kim D.D.S. of Wausau and his staff are experienced at diagnosing and treating bruxism and, as a result, preventing headaches.
