Background summary
Headache is common in patients with temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD). Migraine and tension headaches are the most common, followed by secondary headache as a result of TMD. International criteria for describing the secondary headache that when the TMD is treated successfully, this has a positive effect on the headache. This, however, has not yet been demonstrated. In addition, migraine and TMD are associated conditions, so it is hypothesized that a positive treatment effect on TMD also has a positive effect on migraine. Eighty consecutive patients from the Orofacial Pain Clinic of the Academic Center for Dentistry Amsterdam will be invited to participate in this study. A questionnaires regarding recent TMD pain, headache and functional impairment will be sent at baseline, 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 12 weeks after the treatment started.
Study objective
In TMD patients with concomitant headache, t is hypothesized that treatment of the TMD complaints will have a positive effect on the headache as well. The effect size is expected to depend on the type of headache, with the strongest effect for secondary headaches attributed to a TMD, followed by migraine and the tension type headache.
