Tackling with Teeth Grinding in South East London

Tackling with Teeth Grinding in South East London

18 / 06 / 2013

Grinding your teeth is an extremely destructive and damaging condition in your mouth and unless you get on top of it, you could be looking at some serious surgery and dental bills in the future. Stress is the main reason why people grind their teeth, although heavy medication can also cause the problem. In the beginning, you may not realise you are doing it, but if you are finding the pressures of living in a bustling place like south east London difficult to cope with at times, you may be getting worked up and angry without being aware of it. You will go home at night with all this bottled up, negative energy and if you don’t completely relax, then you will take the stress to bed with you, and this is where most of the damage is done- in your sleep. The only way you will start to notice something is wrong is when you start to feel fatigued during the day and your jaws start to ache: your dentist will also notice the destruction on your teeth and supply you with a mouth-guard. But it will take some form of therapy to resolve the issues that you have and then teach you to unwind each night. If not, and you may do damage to your jaws, your hearing your head and then down into the neck and shoulders- it could even affect your central nervous system.
