Tired of headaches, Jaw Pain or Worn Teeth? It could Be Bruxism
Bruxism — the clenching or grinding of teeth — is incredibly common. In fact, it’s estimated that over 80% of people will experience it at some point in their lives. Yet many people don’t realise that symptoms like headaches, jaw tension, earache, neck stiffness, poor sleep, or tooth wear may be caused by it.
Because the signs of bruxism often mimic other issues, it’s not unusual for sufferers to seek help from a GP, only to find no clear answers. At Higher Lane Dental Practice, we take a closer look — and can help you get to the root of the problem.
How we treat Bruxism.
The most common and effective treatment is an occlusal splint — a custom-made mouthpiece that sits between your upper and lower teeth to prevent grinding and clenching, especially during sleep.
We offer the SCi Splint (Sleep Clench Inhibitor), a small, FDA-approved device designed to:
Reduce tension and pressure in the jaw
Prevent further wear on your teeth
Help relieve symptoms of headaches and migraines
Lightweight, discreet, and custom-fitted to your mouth, the SCi splint is worn on the lower front teeth and can even be fitted on the same day as your consultation.
