Teeth Grinding & Clenching

Bruxism Treatment

Bruxism is the involuntary grinding or clenching of teeth, often occurring during sleep. Over time, it can cause tooth wear, jaw pain, headaches, and even TMJ problems. Early diagnosis and treatment help protect your teeth and relieve discomfort.

Common Signs of Bruxism

Many patients are unaware they grind their teeth until symptoms appear. Bruxism can be linked to stress, bite imbalance, or sleep-related issues.

  • Worn, flattened, or chipped teeth.
  • Jaw soreness or tight facial muscles.
  • Frequent morning headaches.
  • Increased tooth sensitivity.
