This September, it’s Migraine Awareness Week. This campaign helps to raise awareness and highlight the impact of migraines.
It’s not just pain that accompanies a migraine. Those suffering, more often than not, are unable to go about their daily life. They might have to take time off work or avoid social events. This condition can be debilitating.
As migraine is an ‘invisible’ condition, there can be a lot of misunderstanding around it. It’s important to challenge this stigma, so those suffering have access to the support they need.
A migraine is a severe headache that can be felt on one side of the head. It’s usually described as a throbbing pain.
It’s a common health condition, affecting around one in five women and one in 25 men in the UK.
There are many reasons why women get migraines more than men. Researchers believe the main cause is due to hormonal fluctuations. It is thought to hit women hardest in their thirties.
Alongside pain, migraines can cause a range of other unpleasant symptoms. This includes:
After an attack, migraines can leave you feeling drained, tired and washed out.
Migraines can last from four to 72 hours, and appear as a:
Migraine with aura – sufferers may see flashing lights or other warning signs
Migraine with no aura – the most common type, where there are no prior warning signs
Migraine with aura but no headache – otherwise known as a ‘silent migraine’. Those affected have prior warning signs, but no actual headache develops
Researchers believe there may be a link between dental issues and headaches. Missing, loose or crooked teeth make the jaw muscles work harder. The result? Muscle inflammation can cause a migraine.
So, it’s vital that you continue to look after your oral health, to help avoid headaches and migraines. It’ll help to prevent many other health conditions, too.
A condition called bruxism (chronic tooth grinding/clenching) can also trigger headaches and migraines. Those with bruxism are putting pressure on their teeth, and overworking their muscles, tendons and joints.
Knowing whether your migraines are the cause of bruxism is hard to gauge. Tooth grinding/clenching can happen while asleep, meaning it could go undetected for some time. This is why attending your dentist is so important – they’ll be able to spot the signs if something isn’t right.
If you experience migraines and suspect an oral issue is to blame, don’t suffer in silence.

How Sedation Dentistry Can Help You Feel Relaxed
If dental appointments make you feel anxious or overwhelmed, you’re not alone. At Evolve Dentistry, we believe everyone deserves access to comfortable, stress-free dental care. That’s why we offer sedation dentistry in Portishead.
Sedation dentistry involves using medication to help you feel deeply relaxed during your treatment. While you’re still awake and able to respond, you’ll feel calm and often have little to no memory of the procedure afterwards.
Sedation can be an excellent option if:
- You experience severe dental anxiety
- You have a strong gag reflex
- You need a complex or lengthy treatment
- You’ve avoided the dentist for years due to fear
At Evolve Dentistry, our experienced team will carefully assess your needs and discuss the sedation options available to you. Your safety and comfort are always our top priorities, and we take the time to explain each step so you know exactly what to expect.
By choosing sedation dentistry in Portishead, you can finally receive the dental care you need without the fear or worry. Many of our patients tell us that after trying sedation, they no longer put off their appointments and feel much more confident about their oral health.
If you’ve been avoiding the dentist because of anxiety, we invite you to discover how gentle, compassionate care and sedation options can transform your experience. #sedation #sedationdentist #awardwinning #beyourbestself #Northsomerset #freeconsultation #multiawardwinning #patientsatisfaction #compositebonding #patientsfirst #newpatients #healthysmiles #naturalteeth #acceptingnewpatients #nailsea #portishead #clevedon #portisheadmarina #dentist #dentures
