Headaches & Migraines in Stamford, CT

Your Headaches Are Not Normal!

You May Have Just Been Improperly Diagnosed

YOU WANT TO GET RID OF YOUR HEADACHES, FIRST STEP IS A CORRECT DIAGNOSIS

To have a correct diagnosis you need a great dentist who specializes in headaches.

Many patients come to us after seeing multiple doctors without finding headache relief. Headaches are tough to diagnose because traditional methods lack definitive tests. At Dental Care of Stamford, we specialize in treating headaches linked to bite imbalances. Using Dr. Jerry Simon’s FDA-approved Bite Discluder, we can quickly pinpoint if your bite is causing your pain. If the test provides relief, we’ll create a targeted treatment plan. With over 30 years of experience, Dr. Simon has helped thousands reclaim their quality of life. Discover lasting relief—schedule your consultation today.

How an uneven bite can cause headaches:

The 4 illustrations below show how an uneven bite can cause headaches. During your consult with Dr. Simon, he will use his FDA-approved Bite Discluder, shown in the 4th illustration, to test and diagnose your bite. If the test relieves your headaches, it confirms that your pain is due to an uneven bite, which can be corrected.

1. With a properly aligned bite, your jaw is centered, and your teeth fit together correctly.

3. The jaws are constantly shifting for teeth to fit which causes muscle spasms and pain (headaches).

2. With an uneven bite, the jaw stretches to fit the teeth, sometimes causing it to shift out of its socket.

4. Dr. Simon's Discluder guides teeth to let jaws center so the muscles can relax and the pain stops.

Here's the truth about most headaches

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to Your Questions

I get earaches but nothing the doctor does helps. Could that be due to my teeth?

Earaches have nothing to do with your teeth or TMJ dysfunction. However, if you put your finger in your ear, you can see how close it is to your jaw joint and teeth. If you open and close your mouth while your finger is in your ear, you can actually feel your jaw joint move. As a result, what may feel like a ear ache may in fact be a jaw joint problem.

The dentist said my teeth are fine, but I still get head, neck, or facial pain. What do I do next?

If the dentist has ruled out tooth problems, then you need to be checked for TMJ dysfunction by a dentist who is specifically trained in the diagnosis and treatment of TMJ dysfunction. Most dentists have not had this training.

Dental care is amazing! Mimi, Joanne (hygenist) super informative, detailed and sweet. Everyone was very welcoming and amicable from start to finish.

Terrible! I came with a problem and they made me take a picture of my entire mouth to push and sell problems. They promised to solve my problem and rescheduled for 1 week and a half later (to extract a cracked tooth!). I only asked for a bandage to be solved in my country and the dentist refused, wanting to make a crown. Without a doubt, dentists in Brazil are by far light years better than here and today I understand why every Brazilian returns to the country to take care of their mouth. It's not because of the high price, it's because of the professional himself.

This was the most relaxing dental experience I have ever had. Any worries or concers were quickly eased with Dr.Roth, Mimi, Missy, Daniella. Would recommend this practice to anyone, especially if you are anxious with dental procedures.

I became affiliated with Dental Care Stamford when I was looking for a dentist for my 18 month old. I was referred by a friend who takes her son there. OMG! First, let me say the kids office is amazing! The staff is wonderful! After my son’s appointment, it was my turn, so we went to the third floor. Everyone in there is so friendly! Meme, Dr. Roth and his assistant Fay have taken exceptional care with me. I’m a patient for life!

This office scams clients out of thousands of dollars and forces them to get unnecessary procedures. I was scammed into getting 4 “cavities” removed “in between my teeth” that never existed. I am 25 years old and I never ever had cavities until I came here and they drilled in my beautiful teeth for nothing other than to get money. I got 4 different dentists to look at my x rays to find these supposed cavities and THEY DONT EXIST. Additionally, I spoke to a few of my friends that used to go to this office and they stopped going here for this exact reason! If this office doesn’t resolve this issue I will be contacting my attorney for medical malpractice. You people should be ashamed of yourselves, pretending so you can take money from a young woman like myself! Shame on you!

This office will persuade you into having work done you never asked for or needed, in addition to what you have initially gone in for. I have experienced this firsthand and have also been advised this office is "all about the money" from a previous employee of theirs. FYI they will not allow you click "post" until you give at least one star, so I assure you that is why there is a yellow star

To Whom it May Concern,
I have been going to Dental Care of Stamford for 15 years. I had previously been going to a dentist elsewhere in Fairfield county for six years until a filling was overfilled and … More split my moler.
The team at Dental Care is unsurpassed. They combine consummate professionalism with welcoming warmth.
Over the years I have interacted with many there. My first contact was with Dr. Simon, the indefatigable leader of this thriving practice. At every juncture of my evolving needs, Dr. Simon brought together the right team for me: Paula, Mimi, and Doctor Rools, among other highly competent members of the Dental Care team – too numerous to mention. They are like family.
When a more serious need required two surgeries, Dr. Simon conferred with the dental surgeon, Dr. Rools, to formulate my plan. Dr. Rools is one of the most gentle, calming doctors I have ever met. He carefully explained the procedures and invited my husband to join discussions of the operations so that he could answer any questions we had, also attending to my fears.
I feel grateful to live near enough to Dental Care of Stamford to be able to be in their unparalleled care.

I need to give a shout out to 3 amazing people that helped me through an extraction of my Molar. Dr Rools was the man. A beast! He calmly got that dam tooth out with a great bed side manner. But … More he didn’t do it alone… there was dear ‘ole Nelly that provided confidence that all will be ok.. especially the nitrous oxide! Amazing. Lastly there was Mimi.. she was awesome. She stood by my side and even held my hand when they were literally jack hammering my tooth. If felt like a rock quarry in my mouth. But I couldn’t have asked for a better 3 person crew. I hope you never need a tooth extraction .. I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy ..( maybe ). But If you do then make sure it’s these 3 superstars ! J

My first time at Dental Care and the experience was so great! Joanne did an amazing job with cleaning and Dr. Patel did my fillings in the front to perfection. Oh and Mimi you did an incredible job with … More budgeting, we worked out my financing so smooth. Thank you so much Mimi, you really made me feel comfortable, customer service was beyond top tier. Finally found a Dental home.
