Bruxism Treatment: Why You Should Say Yes

Have you been saying no to bruxism treatment? Perhaps you’ve been thinking it over but you don’t really understand whether coming in to see us for your functional disorder (you might grind your teeth involuntarily, clench them, or both) is absolutely essential. To take any guesswork or doubt out of the equation, we proudly provide reasons you should simply say yes, show up for your customized treatment, and then go home to follow our guidelines for effective care.

It Doesn’t Require Much Planning

Did you know that it’s not going to take a whole lot of effort to receive bruxism treatment? All you’ll need to do is come in for a visit or two. We will do all the heavy lifting and legwork on your behalf! Then, you’ll come in, receive your oral appliance, and go along on your merry way.

It’s Comfortable

About that oral appliance: It’s just a gentle, comfortable mouth guard. You’ll be wearing it when you get into bed at night, so it protects your teeth and your jaws as you sleep. It’s not going to get in the way of your life and you’ll be able to sleep comfortably with it in place.

It Offers Amazing Protection

It doesn’t include the use of drugs, it’s not complicated, and it’s only necessary while you sleep. While this bruxism treatment approach may seem simple, it’s extremely effective! A reason to say yes? It really works!

You’ll Avoid Serious Damage Down The Line

When you choose bruxism treatment, you decide to avoid damage to your teeth (like cracks and even tooth loss), to your jaw joints (like TMJ disorder), and to instead keep your smile healthy and safe.
