“Night guards”, which are applied by the dentist and placed between the upper and lower jaw teeth to prevent the teeth from contacting each other during sleep, are the most important tool used in the symptomatic treatment of teeth grinding. However, night guards are often not sufficient on their own.
For this reason, depending on the picture of the disease, some additional treatments should be applied in addition to night guards:
- Stress therapy,
- Measures to ensure comfortable sleep,
- Administration of muscle relaxants,
- Replacement of incorrectly made dental fillings and veneers,
- Prosthetic applications to replace missing teeth.
