Treatment of Teeth Clenching and Teeth Grinding
Tooth clenching (bruxism) is the continuous contact of teeth caused by the contraction of the chewing muscles. Teeth grinding (clencing) is the rhythmic movements of the teeth to the right and left by touching each other without any nutrients in the mouth. They occur especially at night during sleep and patients are not aware of it. It occurs in stressed people.

Before & After
Great Result, We Achieved Wonderful Smiles
Breakage, cracking, flattening occur on the teeth. Hot-cold sensitivity occurs due to the abrasion of the teeth. Wounds appear on the side of the tongue and on the inside of the cheeks due to biting and crushing. There is loosening of the teeth and recession of the gums. There is pain in the masticatory muscles due to constant and excessive muscle contraction. Enlargement of the muscles of the cheek area is observed.
The goal of tooth clenching and teeth grinding treatment is to prevent permanent damage to the teeth and jaw joint and to eliminate pain. For treatment, it is necessary to use patient-specific, hard and night plaques applied in such a way as to ensure full contact with the teeth in the opposite jaw. These plaques prevent the teeth from contacting each other during sleep and prevent the teeth from wearing out. They are usually applied to the upper jaw. Botox is the most commonly used method in the treatment of teeth clenching and teeth grinding habit along with night plaques.
