Need to know: teeth grinding
Many people grind their teeth. Teeth grinding or “bruxism” can be triggered by anxiety and stress or may be a sign of a sleep disorder. It can cause headaches, sensitive teeth and long term problems in the jaw.
Key takeaways:
– Cut down on alcohol, caffeine and smoking which increase the risk
– See a dentist who will assess the cause and provide customized treatment
– Untreated teeth grinding will cause long term damage to your teeth and jaw
A dentist has the expertise to treat teeth grinding.
