Abstract

Introduction: Cephalea from orofacial origin is a diffuse, mild to moderate pain that appears as a bandage around the head. There are many different etiological causes of dental origin that contribute to the
appearance of cephalea.
Purpose: The purpose of our research is dental treatment of patients with traumatic occlusion, bruxism
and loss of occlusal support, which have a pathological condition - cephalea from orofacial origin.
Material and methods:For the purposes of this paper, 15 patients with cephalea from orofacial origin were
analysed, diagnosed and treated. The control group consisted of 15 patients without etiological factors. A
butterfly deprogrammer and a stabilization splint were made depending on the indication.
Results and discussion: According to our patient study results, it appears to be a link between inadequately
made prosthetic devices, bruxism and loss of occlusal support with cephalea. The therapy should help the
patient urgently and continue to relieve the cephalea symptoms from orofacial origin. The results show an
improvement in 86.7% of the examinees.
Conclusion: The butterfly deprogrammer and stabilization splint are new methods that can contribute
along with other therapeutic modalities in improving the quality of life in a patient with cephalea from
orofacial origin.
Keywords: Cephalea, orofacial origin, butterfly deprogrammer, stabilization splints
