“…One research study has demonstrated that migraine patients report higher frequencies of certain oral habits than do tension headache patients and non-headache controls (Moss, Ruff & Sturgis, 1984). Subsequent reports have provided converging evidence that many cases of common migraine pain may be causally related to temporomandibular joint internal derangement and oral habits (Villarosa & Moss, 1985;Ruff, Moss & Lombardo, 1986;Moss, 1987;Moss, 1988). Despite the existence of growing data, the original findings of Moss et al (1984) have yet to be repHcated with an independent population of migraineurs.…”

Previous research has suggested a relationship between migraine pain and oral habits. The present study was designed as a replication of a prior study that found self-reported higher frequencies of certain oral habits in migraine as opposed to tension headache and non-headache groups. Three groups of subjects (common migraine, tension headache and non-headache) were given a single questionnaire in which five oral habits (i.e. teeth clenching, jaw jutting, cupping the chin in the hand, and resting the right and left side of the face on the hand) were rated on a 0 (not at all) to 10 (almost always) scale. Significant main effects were obtained for groups and oral habits in a 3 (groups) X5 (oral habits) ANOVA. Post hoc Tukey tests revealed the common migraine group reported significantly more frequent oral habits than did the tension headache group. The non-headache control group did not differ significantly from either headache group. Discussion focuses on the need for continued research in this area.

“…Oral behavioural patterns or 'habits' have been suggested to be related to the development of head and facial pain (Moss, Garrett & Chiodo, 1982;Ruff, Moss & Lombardo, 1986). Research from our laboratory has shown that site-specific head and facial pain can be produced in analogue subjects as the result of certain oral habits (Villarosa & Moss, 1985).…”

Oral behavioural patterns have received limited empirical support for their causal role in the development of head and facial pain. The present study was designed to assess electromyographic (EMG) variations in six muscle groups (i.e., bilateral masseter, temporalis and orbicularis oris) as a function of various oral behavioural patterns. A second purpose was to determine whether mandibular movement patterns and specific oral behaviours could be predicted by EMG patterns. Eleven non-pain subjects followed each of twenty oral behavioural patterns while EMG was recorded. Electromyographic change scores were computed for each behaviour relative to baseline measures. Initial analyses were performed using factorial repeated measures ANOVAS. Using post hoc analyses as general guides, specific EMG criteria were developed for classifying mandibular movements. For most subjects, EMG patterns accurately classified teeth clenching, protrusive/retrusive movements, right movements, left movements and lip movement patterns. Wide individual variations were found among muscle groups for identical behaviours. The association between particular oral behaviours and EMG patterns may explain 'sinus' headaches and certain types of facial pain.
