Bruxism, the habitual grinding or clenching of teeth, presents a common yet often overlooked dental concern affecting both adults and children. This condition can occur during the day or at night, often manifesting unconsciously during periods of stress, anxiety, or while asleep. The consequences of bruxism extend beyond dental health, with potential impacts on jaw muscles, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) discomfort, headaches, and even sleep disturbances. Diagnosis typically involves a dental examination, where signs of tooth wear, jaw pain, or muscle tenderness may indicate bruxism. Management strategies may include the use of mouthguards or splints to protect teeth, stress reduction techniques, behavioral therapy, and addressing underlying contributing factors such as sleep disorders or stress management. Early recognition and intervention are crucial in mitigating the potential dental and health consequences associated with bruxism.
