Bruxism & TMJ Treatment
Bruxism is essentially the grinding of the teeth and clenching of the jaw and can occur during the day or at night. This activity causes stress on the temporomandibular joining (TMJ), which can be painful or uncomfortable.
Treatments
There is no single cure for bruxism, though a variety of helpful devices and tools are available, such as mouthguards and bite strips.
Other forms of treatment include relaxation exercises and stress management education. Once the issues of bruxism and TMJ have been resolved, we offer a variety of dental procedures that can restore the damage done by the excessive grinding or chewing.
