[Evaluation of the status of the stomatognathic system in patients with idiopathic headaches]

The stomatognathic system was assessed in 114 subjects with various types of idiopathic headaches. Stomatognathic system dysfunctions were recognized most frequently in patients with atypical facial pain and headache, and with mixed headache. Much less frequently these dysfunctions were present in patients with migraine or cluster headaches. The obtained results suggest that stomatognathic system dysfunctions should be considered in the pathogenesis of certain headaches.
