It might be helpful to explore some of the common causes of migraines, but if you’re still not sure what the cause of your frequent migraines is, request a TMJ consultation at https://www.tmjsleepapnea.com/book-appt/.
We not only focus on treating TMJ and sleep apnea conditions but whole-body health. We’ve found that one of the causes of TMJ and sleep apnea can happen to people as young as infants. Tongue ties and lip ties prevent the full movement of the tongue and lips which can lead to serious problems down the line such as speech problems, sleep apnea, TMJ, and much more. With a simple procedure known as a frenectomy, our dentists can release the tongue or lip tie in both infants and adults to relieve symptoms and prevent future problems.
