Abstract

OBJECTIVE Many cases of headaches are diagnosed as idiopathic, in this article we present the case of a female patient 25 years old, who attended neurological consultations due to constant chronic headache, of unknown cause, reason why the patient was referred to several specialists, among them the specialty of oral and maxillofacial surgery. In the complementary examinations (tomography), the third lower molar retained in the inverted position was found, with an intimate contact with the inferior dental nerve, attributing this as the cause of the headache. When removing the tooth, it was possible to eliminate the headac.
