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.
