If you’re chronically grinding your teeth at night (whether you know it or not), you may begin to experience uncomfortable symptoms. Things like; tooth sensitivity, chipped, cracked, or even broken teeth, TMJ disorder, soft tissue damage, among many others. More importantly, sleep bruxism is often an indicator that you could be suffering from another sleep disorder – and, if left untreated, could lead to other health complications.
In most cases, your dentist will likely recommend an oral appliance that can keep you from applying this pressure on your teeth. But, there are also other things you can do – like finding different ways to cope emotionally if your bruxism is caused from an emotional factor.
