Bite Evaluation

Got a Poor Bite?

You may have poor bite if you experience any of the following:

• You clench your jaw muscles for long periods of time
• When you wake up in the morning, your jaw muscles feel tired and sore to the touch
• You experience pain behind the eyes
• You grind your teeth while you are sleeping
• Your jaw clicks and pops upon opening
• Your head or scalp feels painful when you touch it
• Your ears ache or you hear ringing
• You have neck, shoulder, or back pain
• You feel dizzy

If you experience any of these symptoms, Dr. Higham and Dr. Sauchelli can evaluate your bite to determine if it is a probably contributing factor. If so, they will recommend an effective plan of treatment.
