Do you have inexplicable jaw pain throughout the day or feel tightness in your jaw muscles and joints? If these symptoms relate to you, you may suffer from teeth grinding, medically termed as bruxism. Teeth grinding is a condition in which your teeth grind against each other while you sleep, although, it is possible to suffer from daytime teeth grinding. Typically, those who grind their teeth don’t even realize they’re doing it, until problems arise. If you’re concerned that you may have bruxism, your Houston dentist can help.
Factors Worsening Your Bruxism
Oftentimes, teeth grinding is caused by psychological issues that you’re completely unaware of or perhaps even physical issues you didn’t find problematic. These include:
- Anxiety
- Stress
- Caffeine intake
- Unresolved anger
- Abnormal bite
- Missing or crooked teeth
Signs of Teeth Grinding
At the consultation, the doctor can determine whether you’re prone to grinding your teeth. Evidence of bruxism is apparent when teeth and enamel seem worn down, chipped, cracked, or flattened. Alongside headaches and joint pain, teeth grinding also increases sensitivity. To stop further damage to your teeth, the dentist will advise a mouthguard. With continuous wear of your nightguard, your teeth won’t endure more damage and the healing process can begin.
For dental restorations, your Houston dentist can use dental bonding to correct any chips. However, if your teeth have extensive injuries, you may need a permanent solutions such as veneers or crowns.
