Local Dentist explains how Bruxism (Teeth Grinding) can lead to several dental problems

May 25th, 2010

Everyone dreams of having the “perfect smile” but for some teeth color isn’t the main concern; the concern is the teeth in general. A serious dental issue that may affect your teeth is bruxism, commonly known as teeth grinding. Bruxism does not usually cause harm, but when teeth grinding occurs on a regular basis your teeth can become damaged and other oral health complications can arise. For nearly 20 years, Dr. Sherzoy is known to be a talented dentist who has helped patients solve their problem with bruxism, preventing any problems in the near future. Teeth grinding and clenching, more commonly referred to as bruxism is an involuntary action, usually occurring at night and done by millions of people in America. Although there are many possible causes, the main one appears to be stress and anxiety.  In the morning, you may wake up with several symptoms, including a throbbing headache, neck, and shoulder and jaw pain. In chronic teeth grinding cases you may result in a fracturing, loosening, or loss of teeth. Since grinding often occurs during sleep, most people are unaware that they grind their teeth. Many times you may learn that you grind your teeth by your loved one who hears the grinding at night. Bruxism mouth guards are very efficient, because it helps prevent additional teeth damage or tooth loss. The bruxism mouth guards protect the crown, enamel, implants and bridges of teeth. They help keep the teeth apart to avoid grinding and clenching. Custom-fit night mouth guards are available only from the dentist’s office. Dr. Sherzoy says, “During regular visits to our office, the teeth are examined for evidence of bruxism – often indicated by the tips of the teeth appearing flat. If symptoms are present, the condition will be observed for changes over the next several visits before a treatment program is established.”
