Abstract

A 13-year-old female patient presented to the dental office for routine dental checkup and correction of her proclined teeth through braces. Patient’s medical history suggested that the patient suffers from frequent episodes of headache, vertigo, dizziness and confusion. These episodes are random and have begun after the onset of menarche. Her physician diagnosed it as migraine and had prescribed medications which are helping with the headache but the episodes still happen at random. Routine lateral cephalometric x-ray done for orthodontic diagnosis, revealed a bony bridge on the posterosuperior articular process of atlas (C1 vertebra).
