Our knowledgeable dentists and caring team are dedicated to providing effective solutions to alleviate sensitivity and protect your teeth from the effects of grinding. With a focus on personalized care, we aim to improve your oral health and comfort.
Understanding Tooth Sensitivity & Grinding
Tooth sensitivity often results from worn tooth enamel or exposed tooth roots, while grinding can cause tooth wear and tear, lead to jaw pain and exacerbate sensitivity. Both conditions may be influenced by various factors, including diet, stress and alignment issues.
Treatment Options
Addressing tooth sensitivity and grinding involves a multi-faceted approach tailored to your specific needs:
- Custom Night Guards: For those who grind their teeth, a custom-fitted night guard can provide protection, preventing further wear and reducing jaw strain.
- Corrective Procedures: In some cases, addressing underlying issues like misalignment or restoring damaged teeth may be necessary to alleviate sensitivity and prevent grinding.
