Teeth Grinding
Teeth Grinding (Bruxism)
Bruxism, also know as excessive teeth grinding and jaw clenching, can lead to:
Tooth Pain and sensitivity
Damage to the teeth
Headaches
Jaw, neck and face pain or soreness
Sleep problems/fatigue
Temporomandibular Joint Discorders (TMJ)
Enlarged jaw (masseter) muscles
Relaxing the masseter muscle can help to provide temporary relief by releasing tension in the facial muscles responsible for the subconscious grinding of the teeth and clenching of the jaw.
