The lowdown on teeth grinding
11th November 2017
You may not give much thought to bruxism (teeth grinding), however, this habit can have more of a negative impact on your oral health than you may realise.
Key takeaways:
– Teeth grinding results in approximately ten times the amount of pressure on your teeth than is normally exerted while chewing food.

– Your dentist can advise on the most suitable treatment for bruxism.
“Bruxism should not be taken lightly.”
