Find Relief from Teeth Grinding with Natural Homeopathic Solutions

Teeth grinding, also known as Bruxism, requires a holistic and multidisciplinary approach for effective treatment, as recommended by the International Journal of Dentistry and Oral Health. Identifying the signs and symptoms early allows practitioners to prescribe targeted remedies that enhance the patient’s quality of life.

What is Bruxism?

Bruxism is an unconscious oral habit characterized by repetitive clenching, grinding, and chewing-like movements of the teeth. It falls under parafunctional habits and affects individuals across all age groups. Bruxism often coexists with behaviors like thumb sucking, tongue thrusting, mouth breathing, and nail-biting, which strain the oral structures.

Common Risk Factors

Bruxism prevalence is rising due to:

• Stress and anxiety
• Lifestyle changes and sleep disturbances
• Poor nutrition and drug use

Potential Ill Effects

If untreated, Bruxism can cause:

• Muscle fatigue and pain
• Excessive wear on teeth, leading to damage or loss
• Headaches, periodontal lesions, and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders
