Are you grinding your teeth? ๐ฆท๐
This is a common habit that many people have. It usually occurs during sleep, but can also happen during the day. Grinding your teeth can cause a lot of dental problems and other health problems, such as:
โ๏ธTooth Damage: potentially chipping, cracking, and even breaking of teeth. It can also damage dental work like fillings and crowns.
โ๏ธJaw Pain: Grinding your teeth puts a lot of pressure on your jaw muscles. This can cause soreness, pain, and stiffness in your jaw.
โ๏ธSleep Disorders: Teeth grinding can disrupt your sleep and lead to other sleep disorders like insomnia and sleep apnea.
๐ฆท๐ดTo prevent this we recommended a nightguard. A nightguard is a dental appliance that is worn at night to protect your teeth from grinding. A nightguard helps relieve jaw pain and headaches caused by teeth grinding.
