A maxillary alveolar mucosal inflammation, demonstrated by local tenderness and increased temperature, is present in migraine, tension-type headache and facial pain patients even when the patient is asymptomatic. Research is presented showing effective treatment of these conditions with fewer side effects than with standard medication by local anti-inflammatory methods. These alternative methods include: chilling, application of anti-inflammatory gel and low-level (non-cutting) laser. Local treatment also mediates cervical muscle spasm, adding to its overall effectiveness.
上颌牙槽黏膜炎症表现为局部压痛和温度升高，在偏头痛、紧张型头痛和面部疼痛患者中均存在，即使患者无症状。研究表明，通过局部抗炎方法治疗这些病症比使用标准药物副作用更少。这些替代方法包括：冷敷、涂抹抗炎凝胶和低强度（非切割）激光治疗。局部治疗还可缓解颈部肌肉痉挛，从而增强其整体疗效。
