We offer effective treatment options for patients affected by teeth grinding, ensuring improved comfort and oral health.
Condition
Teeth Grinding
Overview
Teeth grinding, medically known as bruxism, involves clenching or grinding teeth unconsciously, often during sleep or stressful situations.
This condition can occur in both children and adults, sometimes without the individual realising it.
The causes of teeth grinding vary. Common triggers include stress, anxiety, sleep disorders like obstructive sleep apnoea, or misaligned teeth. Lifestyle factors such as excessive caffeine or alcohol intake can exacerbate the issue.
In some cases, it is linked to medication side effects or neurological conditions. Identifying and addressing the underlying cause is crucial for management.
Teeth grinding can lead to jaw pain, headaches, and tooth damage, including enamel wear and cracks.
It often disrupts sleep, causes facial tension, and increases the risk of long-term oral health issues, affecting overall comfort and well-being.
At New Ash Green Dental & Aesthetics, we provide expert care for teeth grinding, focusing on relieving discomfort and preventing long-term damage. Our tailored treatments include the provision of bespoke removable splints / mouthguards to protect teeth from further damage as well as our muscle relaxing treatment which works to relax the jaw muscles, reduce strain and protect teeth.
We assess underlying causes, such as stress or misalignment, and recommend effective solutions to address them. With advanced diagnostics and a patient-focused approach, we ensure comprehensive care, helping patients manage bruxism while improving their oral health and overall quality of life.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I needed to have a tooth extracted and was not looking forward to the event. As it turned out Rav & his dental nurse carried out the procedure very efficiently and left me wondering what my concerns were all about!! I was also very impressed to receive a follow-up call the next day from the Dental reception enquiring about my health which thankfully was fine following the extraction.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. First time visiting this dentist today. I was blown away by how nice and polite all the staff were. They were also very helpful. All the staff were friendly and the dentist I saw was very professional and made me feel at ease. From the moment the dental nurse called my name I felt I was in good hands. I have full confidence in this dental practice and would highly recommend.
