Teeth Grinding
Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, is a common dental condition where a person involuntarily clenches and grinds their teeth, typically during sleep. This habitual grinding can result in various oral health issues and discomfort. The exact causes of teeth grinding can be multifaceted, often stemming from stress, anxiety, misaligned teeth, or even lifestyle factors like excessive caffeine or alcohol consumption. While occasional teeth grinding may not cause significant harm, chronic bruxism can lead to dental problems such as worn enamel, chipped teeth, and jaw pain. In severe cases, it may even contribute to temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD), causing headaches and facial pain. Addressing the root causes, stress management, and using custom-fitted nightguards to protect the teeth are common approaches to managing teeth grinding and its associated dental problems. Regular dental check-ups can help detect and address any issues early, ensuring the long-term health of your teeth.
