Tooth Grinding & Sleep Apnoea
Tooth Grinding & Sleep Apnoea in London
Teeth grinding or bruxism is a form of parafunction where the muscles of the jaw are excessively active. This can cause aching in the jaw muscles near the ear and forehead as well as tooth wear (shortening of the teeth) and tooth mobility (fremitus).
Tooth wear can lead to sensitivity to cold or sugary foods and potentially tooth loss in severe cases. Diagnosis of this is vital in order to prevent this; a firm guard can be placed over the teeth in combination of physiotherapy, and topical anti-inflammatories.
- Reduces aching
- Fight and prevent tooth wear
- Tooth guards available

Aster Hailom2023-12-06April was kind and professional looking forward to see her for my next appointment.Kat K2023-11-29After having some hiccups in my treatment which were quite anxiety inducing and annoying. I've been treated by April and Shankar for the past few months. They set things right and restored my faith in the clinic. The 5 stars are for them.rodica david2023-10-17Pleasant staff, teeth cleaning went smoothly. Plenty of aftercare advice also given. Thank you, I'll be back 🌹Faris ElBala'awi2023-08-08This is my second review in addition to my original review I left below earlier. Today 08/08/2023 remarks the end of my braces journey with Waldron Dental clinic. I cannot recommend this place any more! I had big gaps between my tooth with weird structured front tooth. Waldron Dental Clinic team was able to close all gaps and give me the natural Hollywood smile. It is money that is well spent and if time goes back I will still chose Waldron Dental Clinic over any other clinic. The team there is very skilled, patient and you feel directly that they know what they are doing. They are always willing to answer all questions and explain what they are doing and why! Also, a point that is very worth mentioning, for the retainers, they have an advanced technological equipment that takes a 3D copy of your tooth when you take your braces off. It is 10x more accurate than the traditional moulding technique that all Dental Clinics use! The retainers I received were fitting is perfectly from the first time!! Well done Waldron Clinic Team! All the Best ———————————————————————— Mr. Grant from Waldron Dental Clinic has just served me via a phone call - 13.08.2022. I don’t really usually leave reviews but he absolutely deserves. I need to say that I absolutely had one of the best customer experiences in terms of help for personal reasons. Mr. Grant did not even hesitate to help and he just straightaway understood that we all as human beings we face sudden personal issues that wouldn’t help us to attend an appointment Speaking about him, his voice was very clear and the phone quality was superb. I did not fail to miss a single word, not as what we experience nowadays on customer service phone calls from other companies. His voice tune was very calming as well and he tried to make the phone call cheerful and he didn’t fail to put a smile on my face this morning! Thank you Mr. Grant, I hope Waldron Dental Clinic relevant people will view this review Many Thanks, Faris ElBalawiHaris Joti2023-07-26Amazing and very professional doctor.Quick and excellent service.
