Bad Bite

    I had a tooth on the bottom left removed about a year ago and ever since my bite hasn't really been the same.
    More recently I've been getting very bad headaches and the muscles on the side of my face and head have been very tender and twitching quite a lot.
    I can't sleep on my left side because of the twitching.
    Is it possible that the headaches and twitching are caused by a bad bite?
    Is there anything can be done about it?

    Hi Enygma
    yeah as far as i know that could be the cause of your problem-should check with dentist though.

    Is it in the morning that you would have headaches mostly?
    I ask because I grind my teeth in my sleep and clench them too and have to wear a night guard to break the habit which my dentist made for me.
    I used to have awful pains in my head in morning and my temples would feel strange also.

    I think if your bite is off in anyway though it can affect your jaw movements and possibly cause you some pain.

    Worth getting checked out.
