DENTAL TOPICS by Dr. Charles M. & Dr. Chas M. Carpenter THE CAUSES AND EFFECTS OF BRUXISM Bruxism, or teeth grinding, is most often caused by stress and anxiety. Sleep problems like snoring and sleep apnea are also common culprits of teeth grinding. Certain medications, particularly SSRIs, are known to cause teeth grinding in some people. Those who grind their teeth often have jaw pain, tooth damage, and other dental problems that can include broken teeth and damaged fillings. If you suspect you have bruxism, a dentist can diagnose the condition. They can also custom-make mouth guards or splints to wear at night to protect teeth from damage. In addition to regular dental checkups, it can also help to work with a doctor to diagnose and treat a condition that may be causing bruxism. Many people grind their teeth throughout the day, making this damaging practice a 24/7 hazard to their oral as well as overall health.
