MIGRAINE PREVENTION BREAKTHROUGH
The field of migraine prevention therapy
has been at somewhat of a standstill. Although numerous drugs are
now on the market, which are intended to subdue migraine pain after
the attack has already begun, preventing migraine has been less than
satisfactory.
However, research has found one common factor to all migraine and
tension-type headache sufferers: tender and sore temple and scalp
muscles caused by intense and prolonged jaw clenching during sleep.
Not teeth grinding, but jaw clenching and there is a world of
difference.
Established research has shown:
»
Jaw clenching muscles of migraine suffers are 70% larger in volume
and generate significantly higher
»
bite forces than control subjects
»
Migraine sufferers who experience headaches soon after or upon
waking show significant evidence of
»
nocturnal jaw clenching
»
Tension-type headache patients contract their temporalis muscles
(clench their jaw) during sleep, on
»
average, 14 times more intensely
that asymptomatic controls.
The FDA has recently approved the first non-drug, no side-effect
method for migraine pain prevention, the NTI-tss, a small and
comfortable specialized mouthpiece that covers only your upper two
front teeth while you sleep.
The NTI-tss must be custom fitted by a dentist. And why just the two
front teeth? Because that prevents the back molars and canine teeth
from coming into contact with each other. Without those teeth
contacting, jaw clenching intensity is reduced by two-thirds!
In clinical trials, 82% of migraine sufferers who used the NTI-tss
for eight weeks had a 77% average reduction in migraine attacks, and
were continuing to improve (details at the NTI-tss website
www.nti-tss.com).
There were no side effects or adverse results. This is not to say
the intense jaw clenching alone is the cause of migraine, but does
put research back on track.
So for the best way to prevent migraine, instead of putting a pill
in your stomach, you put a device on your teeth!
