Bruxism: Causes, Effects and Cure

Did you wake up with a sore teeth or jaw or maybe a headache this morning? Does someone hear nighttime grinding noises from your side of the bed?  You may be suffering from Bruxism- the grinding and clenching of teeth.
For many, Bruxism is an unconscious habit.  Some may not even realize it until someone comments that they make a horrible grinding sound while sleeping. Some potential signs of bruxism may also include aching in the face, head, and neck. Your dentist Newport Beach can make an accurate diagnosis and determine if the source of facial pain is a result of bruxism.
