Teeth grinding treatment at Mouth Dental
Our professionals ensure each patient undergoes a comprehensive oral exam and health analysis to check for signs of bruxism and understand the causes. We provide personalised treatment for individual cases. As specialists in orthodontics, we offer a range of treatments for malocclusions that form bad bites. If your teeth grinding is a result of an improper bite, our resident orthodontists will help you correct it.
We offer custom-made clear mouthguards or night guards to prevent tooth-on-tooth contact. They offer increased comfort and low profiles. Our restorative treatments can rebuild tooth structure worn down from teeth grinding. Composite fillings, inlays, onlays, and dental crowns return functionality and aesthetics to your teeth. Our in-house endodontists will treat pulp infection that results from severe teeth grinding.
Our clinicians are certified and trained to administer botox. It is part of our facial aesthetics service. Botox is proven effective in treating bruxism and pain related to the condition, such as TMJ. When injected into the masseter muscle, it prevents involuntary grinding of the teeth and clenching of the jaw while easing accompanying tension and aches in your jaw and head. It may also get injected into the frontalis and temporalis muscles.

Frequently asked questions
What is Bruxism?
Bruxism is a condition characterised by the involuntary clenching, gnashing, or grinding of teeth. It commonly occurs during sleep but can also happen while awake. Bruxism can range from occasional and mild to chronic and severe.
Is it possible to correct teeth grinding?
Yes. Various treatment options are available to address and manage teeth grinding (bruxism). These can help alleviate symptoms and prevent further damage to the teeth and jaw. The specific approach depends on the underlying causes and severity of the condition.
What happens if teeth grinding is not treated?
If teeth grinding (bruxism) is left untreated, it can lead to several medical complications and dental issues. These include tooth damage, jaw disorders like TMJ & TMD, headaches, facial pain, gum problems, malocclusions, neurological conditions, and sleep disorders. Severe tooth damage can expose the dental pulp raising the risk of dental and gum infection. Untreated bruxism exacerbates headaches and migraine, causing stress and blood pressure levels to increase, leading to the risk of heart disease.
How can you tell if you have Bruxism?
You may be aware or unaware of your bruxism. Most teeth grinding happens while you sleep. Symptoms of bruxism include face, neck, & shoulder pain, tense facial, jaw, & neck muscles, painful jaw, teeth sensitivity, worn-down or broken teeth, headaches, earaches, limited jaw opening, and disturbed sleep.
What are the treatment options available for teeth grinding?
Based on individual cases, dentists prescribe mouthguards or splints, muscle relaxants, orthodontic treatment, teeth contouring, stress management, and medication. The most used neuromodulator for relaxing the jaw muscle is Botox.
Can braces or other dental devices help with teeth grinding?
Yes, correcting a poorly aligned dental bite with the help of braces or using mouthguards and SCI splints can resolve bruxism.
What are the lifestyle changes that you need to make to manage teeth grinding?
Managing stress and anxiety, cutting back on caffeine, limiting alcohol intake, avoiding chewing gum, and managing sleep apnea can help.
How long does it take to treat teeth grinding?
The duration of treatment depends on the nature of the treatment. Orthodontic treatments can take anywhere between 6 months to 24 months. Teeth contouring, dental bonding, and fillings may only take minutes. Fitting crowns may take one or two in-chair sessions. Administering Botox also takes just a few minutes. Talk to your dentist to learn more about your treatment options.
