What are the signs and symptoms of teeth grinding? What is suggested treatment?

0

• Stress is the most common factor of grinding teeth known as “bruxism”. Too much caffeine in your diet can add to this already existing problem. Grinding usually takes place while you sleep. If you are waking up with a headache, toothache, or experiencing tenderness to the face and/or jaw, you may be grinding. Self relaxation techniques can sometimes help such as a warm washcloth to relax the muscles. In more severe cases a dental appliance known as a”nightguard” can be custom made to alleviate your symptoms.
