The longer it takes you to do something about bruxism, the more likely it is that dental damage will negatively impact both your appearance and oral health. People start to experience nightly teeth grinding and clenching problems for different reasons. When you start to feel the effects of this problem, an appointment can lead to timely protection. At our practice, we understand that people will realize that they need help at different times, and that can mean that their treatment needs change.
When we evaluate your smile, we will look for any areas where your enamel has been chipped, cracked, or worn down because of bruxism. Based on the state of teeth impacted by this problem, we can discuss the need for restorative dental work. With custom dental crowns, we can provide support without changing the way you look. As a result, we can help you regain your oral health and bite function while we also improve your smile!
Oral appliance therapy can give you important protection when TMJ disorder and bruxism impact you. An appliance to address these issues can be made for you to wear during the night. Based on your needs, we can make sure that your teeth remain apart, and that your jaw joints and muscles remain in better alignment.
If you have been dealing with teeth grinding and clenching issues, we can discuss treatment to protect vulnerable teeth. Responding to these issues can prevent further difficulties with your bite function and oral health, which means you can regain confidence in your smile as well as your dental health. We can also make sure that you are not troubled further by bruxism or related issues with TMJ disorder.
