If there’s anything as important as saving money, it’s protecting your teeth! Bruxism is a condition where the stress and tension in your jaw are caused by your teeth’s developed tendency to grind against each other. We know life has been a grind these days, but it’s critical to be cautious and not put this stress on your teeth. In the images above, we have included information on identifying symptoms of Bruxism, remedy tips, and long-term effects. Studies have shown that 70% of bruxism cases are associated with stress and anxiety.
Custom-made nightguards control damage created by Bruxism and its complexities. This is an effective solution and relatively affordable in comparison to its alternatives. Nightguards act as a barrier to keep your teeth from grinding against each other; this is how tension is relieved in the jaw area.
