Do you sometimes wake up with headaches?

Sore jaws that do not appear to have a clear cause? Perhaps your teeth are unusually sensitive in the morning, or your partner has mentioned that you grind your teeth at night.

This condition, known as tooth grinding or bruxism, is surprisingly common and can have serious consequences for your oral health if not treated. Tooth grinding treatment in Wibsey is uniquely made to preserve your tooth enamel whilst being completely painless.

What is tooth grinding treatment?

Tooth grinding treatment focuses on treating the issues caused by bruxism and eliminating its root causes. This may include the use of custom-made mouthguards or splints, as well as other customised solutions to protect your teeth and alleviate symptoms.

What is tooth grinding?

Bruxism, or teeth grinding, occurs when you clench or grind your teeth unconsciously, whether while sleeping or during the day. Although it may appear harmless, repetitive grinding can cause:

  • Enamel wear and tear: The outer protective layer of your teeth, the enamel, gradually erodes, exposing the sensitive layers underneath—the dentin and the tooth pulp.

Personalised tooth grinding treatments

If you recognise any symptoms, it’s important to get a tailored treatment plan from your dentist. Here are some of the options we provide:

Custom-made night guards

These personalised night guards are one of the most effective treatments for bruxism. They fit perfectly over your teeth, creating a barrier that prevents grinding and protects your enamel. They are comfortable, durable, and simple to use, thanks to 3D digital scans. Unlike generic store-bought guards, these are custom-made to fit your individual dental profile.

Stress management techniques

Stress and anxiety are common causes of teeth grinding. We can advise you on relaxation techniques and, if necessary, refer you to counselling services. Small changes, such as avoiding caffeine and alcohol before bedtime, can help reduce grinding.

Bite adjustments

If your bruxism is caused by crooked teeth or age-related bite changes, we can make precise adjustments to restore balance. This reduces stress on your jaw and helps prevent grinding.

  • Cracked or chipped teeth: Continuous grinding can weaken your teeth with time, leading to visible damage over time—crack lines, chips and fractures.
  • Jaw pain: Bruxism strains the muscles in your jaws, resulting in temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain. The pain is related to the muscle strain.
  • Headaches: Many people with bruxism wake up with tension-type headaches, especially in the morning.

While stress management and lifestyle changes are effective for mild cases of bruxism, more advanced cases may necessitate dental adjustments or medications such as muscle relaxants. It’s always a good idea to consult a dentist to explore the best treatments for teeth grinding for your specific situation.

Many people don’t realise they grind their teeth until a dentist points out the signs. These may include:

  • Grinding teeth causes jaw pain without a clear cause.
  • Grinding teeth causes the gum pain unrelated to infections or cavities.
  • Grinding teeth causes receding gum without the usual buildup of tartar or stains.
  • Grinding teeth causes unexplained tooth sensitivity.
