Head, neck, and facial pain is one of the most complicated and confusing areas in medicine today for several very good reasons:

First, there are so many real causes of head, neck and facial pain that it is often very hard to determine the correct cause of a patient's problem
Just a few legitimate causes of head, neck or facial pain include infections of the cars, throat, sinuses, eyes, teeth, and gums. In addition, it includes infections and cysts of wisdom teeth, tumors of the head and neck structures, including the muscles, bones, and internal organs. Also arthritis of the jaw joints. Also it includes fibromyalgia, trigeminal neuralgia, bells palsy, multiple sclerosis, temporal arteritis, glossopharyngeal neuralgia, and diseases of the salivary glands. Other causes include neurologic diseases of the head and neck, neuralgia, neuritis, true migraine or sinus headaches, and problems of the spine or vertebral column. Also, trauma such as a blow to the head or a whip lash injury from a fall or a motor vehicle accident. Even psychosomatic symptoms and referred pain. And, last to mention, but certainly not least important, Temporomandibular disorders, specifically muscle and joint pain that can be proven to be caused by a conflict between the teeth and the jaw joints.

Second, because there are so many medical specialists trained to treat these problems, and they are, by the nature of their training, usually unable to diagnose problems outside their field of expertise.
Medical people who may be consulted by patients with head, neck or facial pain include family doctors, ear, nose, and throat doctors, neurologists, orthopedic doctors, oral surgeons, general dentists, physical therapists, chiropractors, naturopathic doctors, homeopathic doctors, psychiatrists, psychologists, and doctors who specialize in treating pain.

Third, most medical doctors, chiropractors, physical therapists, and even dentists are not trained in diagnosing, much less treating bite problems that cause TMJ pain.
It simply is not included in the curriculum of medical and even most dental schools because it can be so tricky to diagnose and treat effectively. However, there are many well trained dentists who can easily diagnose and treat the problem. You just need to seek them out.

Fourth, until now, there was no fast, easy and inexpensive way to prove that the pain was in fast due to a conflict between the teeth and the jaws joints. But now, Dr. Simon's revolutionary Best Bite Discluder can quickly, and easily, prove that the pain is, or is not, due to your bite, and get you out of pain in less than five minutes.

Fifth, and possibly most important, the person who makes the first diagnosis is the patient.
They then decide to take their problem to the doctor that specializes in the treatment of the problem they think they have. If they are incorrect, and they enter the medical maze at the wrong point, they go from doctor to doctor and wind up with frustration, continuing pain, a list of incorrect diagnosis and often a medicine cabinet full of pills that may help the symptoms, but does not solve the problem. Unfortunately, the person with the pain, the patient, does not know about TMJ pain, and so they do not seek out the only person who would help them, a dentist trained in treating TMJ pain.

This section of the web page is devoted specifically to the head neck and facial pain caused by a conflict between the teeth and the jaw joints.
TMJ pain has been called medicine/dentistry's great imposter because it can be confused with so many other disorders. No one even knows how often TMJ pain occurs because it is so frequently over looked. If you have head, neck or facial pain, take some time to learn about TMJ pain.
