This study was designed to evaluate the pain characteristics of tension-type headache by the tongue ridge. Patients with tension-type headache visited the Department of Oral Medicine, K University Dental Hospital were recruited to this study. Experimental group(n=65) was composed of tension-type headache with the tongue ridge and control group(n=65) was composed of tension-type headache without the tongue ridge. Evaluation list was pain quality, pain intensity, pain laterality, pain increase by routine physical activity and then it was analyzed statistically.
The results were as follows :
1. Pain quality of tension-type headache patient was significantly different by the tongue ridge(p=0.049).
2. Pain intensity of tension-type headache patient was significantly different by the tongue ridge(p=0.010).
3. Pain laterality of tension-type headache patient was not significantly different by the tongue ridge.
4. Pain increase by routine physical activity of tension-type headache patient was not significantly different by the tongue ridge.
Therefore, it was considered that the tension-type headache patient was influenced by the tongue ridge in the pain quality and pain intensity.
