More About What you need to know about teeth grinding

According to the American Sleep Association, bruxism affects 10% of American adults. The treatment for bruxism depends on its severity and underlying causes. Some of the common treatments include:

1. Mouthguard: A custom-made mouthguard can prevent teeth from grinding and protect your teeth from further damage.
2. Muscle Relaxants: If bruxism is caused due to stress, muscle relaxants can help relieve the tension in the jaw muscles.
3. Dental Procedures: Certain dental procedures like orthodontic treatment or crowns can help correct bite misalignment that may be causing bruxism. 🦷

The following tips may also help reduce the risk:

1. Reducing stress and anxiety through meditation and relaxation techniques.
2. Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco products.
3. Practicing good sleep hygiene and getting enough sleep.
4. Maintaining good oral hygiene and visiting the dentist regularly. 🪥

If you think you have bruxism, do not hesitate to contact Ideal Smiles for more information about available treatments. 🧑‍⚕️
