A 2-minute screener

Is my headache actually my jaw?

Five questions. Two minutes. A dentist-built screener for chronic jaw clenching, bruxism, and tension-pattern head pain. Not a diagnosis — a starting point for whether to talk to someone.

Question 1

Do you wake up with a headache, jaw soreness, or tension behind your eyes or temples?

Pain that's worst in the morning often points to overnight clenching.

This screener is educational and does not constitute medical advice. A clinical diagnosis is made only after an in-person or telehealth evaluation. If you are experiencing acute jaw pain, locking, severe headache, or symptoms of stroke, contact your primary care physician or emergency services.
