For the traditional round-faced type, see Thai cat. The Siamese cat is one of the first distinctly recognized breeds of Asian cat. Derived from the Wichianmat landrace, one of several varieties of cat native to Thailand (formerly known as Siam), the Siamese became one of the most popular breeds in Europe and North America in the 19th century.
Re: Grinding teeth/ tmj? cause dizziness? Grinding or clenching teeth may not cause the dizziness but if you are doing either to the point you strain your jaws and facial muscles then your eustachion tubes may become inflamed causing ear fullness or stuffiness and dizziness or feeling spacey. A night guard may help if you are grinding/clenching mainly at night.
As the balance organ is faulty, the brain becomes more dependent on information coming from the eyes and sensors in your body. This makes you much more sensitive to situations which can cause dizziness, such as disorientating environments and times when you are under stress.
