What You Should Know About Tooth Grinding?

Tooth Grinding is also known as Bruxism, and it happens for a couple of seconds while you are asleep. There are some symptoms of this disorder. If you wake up with a headache, pain in your jaws, or gum swelling, there are high chance that you’ll grind your teeth.

This can form an enlarged muscle on each side of your mouth. As it’s the strongest one, it can seriously damage other teeth and mouth tissues. Grinding can also weaken the intricate jaw joints, which hold every tooth together in their respective places.

Any disorder in those jaws can lead to several dental problems including chronic pain, arthritic changes, gum diseases, infection, and tooth loss.

Our Treatments

We will examine your jaw joints, enlarged muscles, and teeth for any symptoms of bruxism. We also make sure with your physical symptoms like if you have a headache when you wake up, or have a jaw pain. Depending on the severity, we can also run some sleeping tests. You will undergo this examination while you are asleep in our sleep centres to look for any signs at the moment.

There are no medications needed for this treatment, we will only give you a mouthguard to put in your mouth while you are asleep. It protects your teeth from the force that creates your teeth grinding activity. If the condition is not so severe, we will recommend some exercises, therapies, Meditation.
