Reduce Wear & Tear from Teeth Grinding with Mouth Guards in Staples Mill, VA
Around 10% of adults and children are affected by chronic bruxism, which can lead to dental issues, headaches, jaw pain, and sleep disturbances. At Best Smiles in Staples Mill, VA, our dentists provide custom mouth guards to alleviate the effects of teeth grinding and offer relief to those suffering from this condition.
Signs of Bruxism
Bruxism, also known as teeth grinding during sleep, is a common issue that many people are unaware of. Dentists can often identify enamel damage during check-ups, and partners may hear the grinding at night. Symptoms like fatigue upon waking, jaw pain, tenderness, and recurring headaches are indicators that a consultation with a dentist for a mouthguard may be helpful. Bruxism can be caused by various factors such as stress, high caffeine intake, bite alignment, oral posture, or sleep apnea.
