Teeth Grinding

Treating teeth grinding often requires a personalised approach, depending on the cause. At Derma Beauty Clinic, some cases of teeth grinding can be effectively treated using the same product used in anti-wrinkle injections - botulinum toxin type A. This innovative approach involves injecting small amounts of the toxin into the muscles responsible for grinding and clenching. This helps to relax these muscles, reducing their activity and alleviating the associated pain and damage. This treatment not only helps in minimising the wear and tear on teeth but also eases jaw discomfort and headaches related to bruxism. The procedure is minimally invasive, and results typically last for several months, providing significant relief and improving overall oral comfort.

In summary, while teeth grinding can lead to a variety of dental and health issues, understanding its causes and seeking appropriate treatment can significantly improve your quality of life. By taking steps to manage stress and addressing any underlying dental issues, you can reduce the impact of bruxism and maintain healthier, more comfortable teeth.
