Migraine-Strength Headaches
in Philadelphia
Even the dullest of headaches can interrupt your daily activities as they can cause you to lose focus frequently. Many people have undiagnosed headaches that seem to come and go on a routine basis. While over-the-counter medications temporarily relieve or lessen the headaches, they can be non-stop and continue to reoccur. So what do you do? You may have what is known as TMJ Disorder. TMD may be the cause of your headaches, especially if they are accompanied by other problems such as tinnitus, jaw pain, and neck pain. These are all symptoms of TMJ problems. If you believe that you may suffer from TMJ disorder, make an appointment online today!
How Are TMJ and Headaches Related?
When one has a problem with the TMJ, the problem radiates throughout the body. The misalignment or imbalance within the jaw joint causes a domino effect of other conditions and symptoms. When the jaw is not in its ideal position, the body naturally attempts to correct the problem by adjusting its position. Unfortunately, this can cause strain and pressure that affects the jaw joints and any other connected body parts, including the neck and skull. The tension and pressure created can travel throughout the body as nerves, tendons, and muscle in the head and neck region are connected to the jaw joint, which will often cause migraine-strength headaches.

Philadelphia TMJ Patient Testimonial
"I can’t believe that dental work could help me achieve a pain-free and drug-free life."
"I would like to extend my gratitude to you and your staff. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your patience and kindness. I must tell your patients my story so they can learn how much you and your staff have helped me overcome serious pain and headaches. I can’t believe that dental work could help me achieve a pain-free and drug-free life.
"My story is simple; I was in severe pain due to headaches, facial and neck pain. I had a feeling after being sent from doctor to doctor that my problem was dental. After seeing several top dentists and neurologists I was going around in circles. The pain had gotten so bad I could not drive or eat. I was put on so many medications I did not know where to turn. While I was on the computer I found your web site and it was a like a light went on. There was an explanation for my pain, TMJ and TMD. I called your office and your staff got me an appointment the next day.
"I could not believe that every pain I had could be caused by my bite being off. This was the answer I was looking for. I must say Dr. Siegel was very professional and listened to my story with care and compassion. He was the only doctor I had been to that offered hope to my situation. Within several weeks I had a dental retainer that was designed to fit over my bottom teeth. . My headaches went away a week later. We decided a full mouth restoration would be the way to change my bite. We decided to use veneers over my teeth to open the bite and change the position of my jaw. I did the upper teeth first and then several months later I did the bottom teeth. I now have a beautiful smile and have no more pain.
"Thank you from the bottom of my heart you were the only doctor who took my case and said I can help you. I placed all my trust with you and your staff. I can’t say how much you have changed my life for the better. I just wanted to let you know how much you have meant in my life and what a great doctor you are. If any of your patients ever need a reference please do not hesitate to call me!"
