BRUXISM TREATMENT
BRUXISM
There are different reasons for clenching your teeth which is a condition we frequently encounter.
- Genetics
- Stress
- Problems with the jaw
- Not breathing sufficiently are some the reasons for bruxism.
This habit is observed especially at nights when you are unconscious. But the person continues this habit during daytime.
Causes, Effects, and Treatment Options
After some time, the person experiences
- Fractured or loosened teeth
- Tenderness
- Jaw and muscle pain
- Gingival recession and tenderness.
To get rid of this condition, the reason behind it must be found out and planning must be done accordingly. We generally design mouth guards that patients can use at nights. Botulinum toxin applications are not a type of additional treatment but a support for mouth guard application.
In addition, the patient should be guided to find solutions to their problem related to stress. Or if the reason for clenching the teeth is an orthodontic reason, then an orthodontic treatment should be planned.
