Recognizing and Managing Bruxism: Protecting Your Smile Day and Night
Bruxism, commonly manifested as teeth clenching or grinding, often occurs unconsciously, especially during sleep. This habitual motion can lead to significant dental and jaw problems.
Signs of Bruxism:
Weakened Enamel: Continuous grinding can erode your enamel, potentially leading to fractures or breakage in severe cases.
Jaw Pain: Constant clenching and grinding can overwork your jaw muscles, causing pain and potentially leading to TMJ disorders.
Chronic Toothaches: Excessive motion can strain your teeth, causing discomfort and soreness.
Sleep Disruption: Bruxism can disturb your sleep, leading to insomnia and restlessness.
