Teeth Grinding

Bruxism  is a condition in which you grind, gnash or clench your teeth. If you have bruxism, you may unconsciously clench your teeth when you're awake (awake bruxism) or clench or grind them during sleep (sleep bruxism).

Mild bruxism may not require treatment. However, in some people, bruxism can be frequent and severe enough to lead to jaw disorders, headaches, damaged teeth and other problems.

Dr Basil, your local Dentist in South Brisbane, likes to start your initial consultation with a comprehensive examination. He will assess your smile, facial appearance, lips, teeth, gums, and soft tissues around your mouth and your airways and breathing. A treatment plan will be formulated and explained to you.

Annerley Dental can assist you with grinding splints and custom-fitted mouthguards for Bruxism.
