As Principal Dentist at tooth dental care in Waterloo, London, I often see patients who don’t realise just how much damage teeth grinding, also called bruxism, can cause. Many people grind their teeth in their sleep without even knowing it, while others clench their jaws during the day when stressed or concentrating. Grinding your teeth can have serious long-term effects on your oral health. In this blog, I’ll explain the risks, the warning signs to look out for, and the treatments available to protect your smile.
