Q: How can bruxism be treated?

A: While there are several ways to treat bruxism, such as relaxation training if the bruxism is stress-related, one common treatment used by dentists is the creation of a fitted plastic tooth guard to be worn when sleeping. This guard prevents teeth from grinding against each other during the night and helps to prevent tooth damage and headaches.
