Reduce Wear & Tear from Teeth Grinding with Mouth Guards in South Side, VA
Approximately 10% of adults and children are affected by chronic bruxism, which can lead to dental issues, headaches, jaw pain, and sleep disturbances. Our dentists at Best Smiles in South Side, VA provide custom mouth guards to help ease the symptoms of teeth grinding and offer relief to those suffering from this condition.
Signs of Bruxism
Bruxism, commonly known as teeth grinding during sleep, is a condition that many people are not aware of. Dentists can identify enamel damage during routine check-ups, and partners may hear the grinding noises at night. Symptoms like fatigue upon waking, jaw pain, tenderness, and frequent headaches indicate the need for a consultation with a dentist to consider using a mouthguard. Bruxism can be triggered by various factors such as stress, excessive caffeine consumption, bite alignment issues, oral posture, or sleep apnea.
