Madison TMJ Headache Treatment – Dr. James Amstadt
Serving Madison and Sun Prairie TMJ Patients

A misaligned jaw joint can cause many nagging symptoms that range from teeth grinding to chronic migraines. Dr. Amstadt, a renowned Sun Prairie / Madison TMJ expert, trained at the Pankey Institute, a world-renowned postgraduate dental education facility. There he studied temporomandibular joint dysfunction, which is the improper alignment of the jaw joints that hold the mandible to the skull. Even a slight misalignment of the TMJs can cause a muscle and nerve disturbance that contributes to a host of painful symptoms. These include, but are not limited to:

  • Chronic Headaches or Migraines
  • Popping and Clicking of the Jaw Joint
  • Chronic Earaches
  • Face, Neck, Shoulder, and/or Back Pain
  • Inability to Fully Open & Close Mouth
  • Teeth Grinding (Bruxism)
  • Tingling Fingers & Hands

If you experience one or more of these problems, Dr. Amstadt can examine your jaw to determine if TMJ dysfunction is the source of your problem(s). He can create a custom oral appliance for you to wear at night. The appliance will eliminate your potential for teeth grinding and properly reposition your jaw. In other situations, Dr. Amstadt may recommend building up your bite with restorative dentistry or evening out your bite with a procedure called equilibration.
