For those who clench or grind their teeth, a custom upper or lower nightguard is recommended to reduce the stress/forces on your temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and teeth.

If left untreated, clenching and grinding can lead to headaches and TMJ pain, as well as irreversible tooth wear and tooth breakage.

You may have heard of nightguards that can purchased over-the-counter and heated in hot water to shape over your teeth. However it is difficult to do this accurately, and when worn long-term, they can cause pain or damage to your TMJ, as well as tooth movement.

There are also other underlying factors, such as stress and anxiety that may contribute to your clenching and/or grinding. If you would like to discuss this further, our psychiatrist would be happy to see you.
