80% of headaches are tension type headaches and migraines caused by tightening the muscles in the face, neck, and head. Other common pain caused by dental issues include TMD/TMJ, a misaligned jaw, overworked jaw muscles, teeth grinding and clenching; these all cause facial and head pain. Relaxing these muscles is the key to treating and relieving that pain. BOTOX® is probably the most effective way to treat this pain because it works by blocking nerve impulses that cause the muscles to contract. In fact, BOTOX® is FDA approved for the treatment of chronic migraine.

Dr. Lindahl has received extensive training in the head and neck and is a experts in the way muscles and joints work in the jaw. Dr. Lindahl can palpate the muscles, locate over tense muscles/locate trigger points through both an internal and external oral exam. (A trigger point is a hyper-irritable spot in the skeletal muscle associated with palpable nodules in the bands of muscle fibers.)

Once the BOTOX® is injected into the trigger points, it allows those muscles to relax and it keeps them from becoming tight again for up to three months. Some patients find relief from their symptoms within a few hours, while it may take two treatments, twelve weeks apart before maximum headache prevention is achieved.
