Do you wake up with jaw pain or headaches? You might be suffering from bruxism, a condition commonly known as teeth grinding. At North Delhi Dental Clinic in Model Town, Delhi, we offer advanced diagnosis and effective treatment options to help you overcome this often-overlooked problem.
What is Bruxism?
Bruxism is the involuntary grinding, clenching, or gnashing of teeth. It often occurs during sleep (sleep bruxism) but can also happen while awake (awake bruxism).
Common Symptoms of Bruxism
- Worn-down or chipped teeth
- Jaw pain or stiffness
- Frequent headaches, especially in the morning
- Tooth sensitivity
- Earaches without infection
- Disrupted sleep or partner hearing grinding sounds at night
Causes of Teeth Grinding
Several factors can lead to bruxism, including:
- Stress and anxiety
- Sleep disorders (like sleep apnea)
- Malaligned teeth or bite issues
- Caffeine or alcohol consumption
- Medications or neurological conditions (in rare cases)
