We understand that teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, can be a difficult habit to break. It is important to be aware of the potential side effects of teeth grinding, so that you can take the necessary steps to prevent further damage.
Tooth Damage
The most common side effects of teeth grinding include worn tooth enamel, exposing deeper layers of the tooth, increased tooth pain or sensitivity.
Jaw Pain
Bruxism can cause aching facial pain, locking of the jaw, and discomfort in the surrounding muscles.
Headache
If you’re suffering from chronic teeth grinding, you may experience severe headaches especially in the morning.
Sleep Disturbance
The noise from teeth grinding can disturb the sleep of both the person who grinds their teeth and their bed partner.
TMD
Temporomandibular disorder or TMD is a group of conditions that affect the jaw joint and the muscles in the face and neck. This can cause pain or tenderness in the face, jaw, or neck, clicking and popping of the jaw, and difficulty opening and closing the mouth.
