Patients cannot easily realize that they have a teeth grinding disorder, even if they clench their teeth during the day. Usually, the people they sleep with at night do not realize that they are grinding their teeth unless they tell them. For this reason, bruxism disease should come to mind when one or more of the following symptoms are present.
Today, just like many diseases, the most important reason for involuntary teeth grinding at night or during the day is stress. Under intense stress, chewing muscles cannot relax and contract constantly, applying serious force to the jaw joint and teeth.
In addition, habits such as lip and pencil biting and nail biting occur under stress and damage the jaw joint.

First of all, it is necessary to eliminate the reason that causes the habit of teeth grinding. Stress should be avoided as much as possible and professional support should be sought when necessary. To eliminate the patient’s complaints and pain, night plate (joint splint), painkillers, muscle relaxants, physical therapy movements and botox applications are recommended.
