Bruxism can be caused by several different things including; stress, anger, acid reflux, or a result of a misaligned bite. Sometimes, patients will develop a habit of clenching their jaw in order to focus – this has been a huge cause of Bruxism.
It’s actually rare to need treatment for Bruxism because usually it doesn’t last long enough. However, there are several options that you can discuss with your dentist about appliances that can protect your teeth and jaw. In other cases, you may need therapy to relieve you of whatever it is that is causing your Bruxism. For example, if you are stressed – you would benefit from some relaxation techniques or stress management therapy.
