44 million people in the U.S. suffer from chronic clenching and grinding. 23 million Americans suffer from migraine pain

The Mystery of Migraine Pain

People with migraine pain suffer a lot. Medical examinations often show that they’re otherwise perfectly healthy. A recent medical study confirmed that people who suffer from migraine pain and chronic headaches, clench their jaws in a balanced, centered position. This causes extremely intense muscular contraction. This nighttime jaw clenching usually goes unnoticed, but it sets the stage for migraine pain and chronic headache pain.

We offer the first and only FDA approved dental appliance for preventing migraine headache pain. This appliance is called the NTI-tss device. It reduces clenching intensity by 66%. The NTI – tension suppression system is a small, nearly invisible removable device that you will wear when you are asleep.

A second treatment option to prevent clenching and grinding away at the enamel surface is the Tanner Appliance. This custom-fitted appliance covers the lower teeth with a flat surface that prevents the tooth surfaces from ever coming into intense contact.

With both treatment options, by preventing high intensity contact, you also eliminate high intensity clenching and the muscular irritation that leads to migraine pain, TMJ, and chronic headache.

Proof

Clinical trials have proven that 82% of migraine sufferers had a 77% average reduction of migraine incidents….no pills, no shots, no surgery, no side effects.
