Bruxism (Grinding)

Bruxism

What is Bruxism?
"Keep a stiff upper lip" or "get a grip!" That's often the advice we get - and give - on how to cope with stress.

If you take it literally, the result could be grinding your teeth or clenching your jaws. It's called bruxism, and often it happens as we sleep, caused not just by stress and anxiety, but by sleep disorders, an abnormal bite, or teeth that are missing or crooked.

Symptoms include a dull headache or a sore jaw.

A custom mouthguard can be fabricated to help alleviate these symptoms.
