As time rolls on, your dental care must do the same. Unfortunately, teeth grinding due to bruxism is a serious problem that often goes untreated by those who suffer from it. You can enhance your oral health with bruxism treatments to keep your teeth crack-free. To learn more about bruxism, ask yourself the following:
– Have you witnessed or been told that you grind and gnash your teeth unconsciously or in your sleep?
– Do your teeth show any visual clues to chips or cracks that cannot be explained or accounted for?
– Have you spotted or felt any tissue damage to your inner cheek tissue?
– Have you seen any moments that your jaw cannot open or close as required, or to its fullest extent?
– Does your tongue feel changed, or feature any strange markings?
– Are you exhibiting earache-like symptoms?
– Have you felt an increase in tooth sensitivity or enamel wear?
– Have you discovered a change in the appearance of your teeth?
