Are you sure about how to end the statement “bruxism disorder can destroy your…” with a word or two? If not, but you certainly think you may be dealing with bruxism that needs treatment from our team, then you may really need our answers to this fill-in-the-blank scenario. While you’re likely starting to get the hint that bruxism has the power to become quite destructive with your oral health, there’s some very good news to consider, as well: We can prevent the damage. All it takes is seeing us for preventive care and agreeing to treatment!
Bruxism Can Destroy Your Teeth
Constant pressure or constant friction can result in the slow and steady destruction of your teeth, which is why we strongly suggest treatment for bruxism disorder. Without it, you might find yourself on the road toward cracked, broken, chipped, worn teeth (and even the potential for tooth loss).
Bruxism Can Damage Your TMJs
About all of that pressure that you place on your teeth with grinding and clenching: It causes problems for your jaw joints, too. When you avoid treatment for bruxism disorder, you can also develop TMJ disorder!
Bruxism Can Destroy Your Usual Quality Of Life!
Okay, maybe bruxism disorder is not exactly going to destroy your daily quality of life. However, you are absolutely going to find that if you grind or clench your teeth habitually, it’s going to interrupt your life in ways you didn’t consider. You may end up with jaw aches, toothaches, facial pain, and headaches. You may annoy the people around you or wake your partner up at night due to the noise you make. You may notice that worn tooth surfaces are making it difficult to chew your food! Avoid all of this with simple bruxism treatment!
