Clenching Treatment

Clenching is a common condition that affects many people. It involves the clenching and grinding of teeth, often unconsciously, which can lead to a range of dental problems and even jaw pain.

What are the treatment procedures?

Clenching treatment involves various methods to help reduce or eliminate the habit of clenching and grinding teeth. These methods may include the use of a custom mouthguard or splint to protect the teeth and reduce tension, stress management techniques to reduce anxiety and stress levels, and physical therapy to relax the muscles of the jaw.

What are the benefits?

At our dental office, we offer clenching treatment as part of our comprehensive dental care services. Our experienced dentists in Kendall, FL, can assess your individual situation and recommend the best course of treatment to help manage your clenching habit. Here are some of the benefits of seeking clenching treatment:
  • Reduced risk of tooth damage and wear- Clenching can cause significant damage to teeth, including chipping, cracking, and wear. Using a custom mouthguard or splint, the teeth can be protected from further damage and wear.
  • Relief from jaw pain and discomfort- Clenching can cause muscle tension and pain in the jaw- it can be alleviated through physical therapy and stress management techniques.
