If you get migraines on a regular basis, bruxism (teeth grinding) could be at least partly to blame. Our dentist may recommend an NTI-tss (Nociceptive Trigeminal Inhibition — Tension Suppression System) device to help prevent your migraines. The NTI-tss device is a specialized night guard designed to fit comfortably over your front teeth while you sleep. It works by taking advantage of and promoting your natural reflex to prevent your front teeth from connecting, clenching and grinding.

Wearing an NTI-tss device at night helps to:

• Prevent the clenching action of the teeth
• Reduce wear and tear on your teeth
• Reduce jaw pain
• Reduce neck and shoulder pain

All of this combines to result in fewer tension headaches and migraines, and to improve your overall sense of well-being and quality of life.

If you experience chronic headaches, migraines, jaw pain or other symptoms of bruxism, we encourage you to contact our office and make an appointment with our dentist to learn about NTI-tss migraine treatment. We are committed to helping you improve your quality of life and enjoy good oral and overall health. You do not need to live in pain!
