[The incidence and treatment effect on headache in patients with craniomandibular disorders]

After a short review of the recent literature on headache the close relationship between headache and craniomandibular disorders was studied. In a total of 116 patients with craniomandibular disorders in the Stomatognathic Physiology Clinic of the Dental School of the University of Athens, 73 patients (62.9%) were found suffering from headache. In most of the patients the headache subsided after the treatment.
