| There are many reasons why people get headaches and the bite and muscles of the jaws are certainly one of the top reasons. The figures below demonstrate how if the bite is off and the teeth pull the jaw out of the socket the muscles have to balance jaw joints in addition to balancing the head. That extra work makes them start to ache and causes many headaches. |

| Normal: The teeth fit together and the jaw is centered |
Bite problem: When the jaw is centered the teeth do not fit together |
Headaches: Teeth pull the jaw out of a centered position causing muscle spasms and headaches |
