Do you grind your teeth while

sleep or during the

 day?

Chronic tooth grinding and clenching (bruxism) affects about 13% of adults and is also prevalent in children and teens. If you’ve noticed soreness in your jaw or neck, dull headaches, tooth pain or sensitivity, or worn enamel, you may be grinding your teeth and clenching your jaw while you sleep or absentmindedly while you’re awake.
At Houghton Dental, we provide patient-centered, advanced dental treatments and solutions to people of all ages and walks of life. If you think you may have bruxism. Our Houghton Dental teeth-grinding dentists can diagnose the problem and recommend effective treatments to help alleviate the symptoms and restore your oral health.

What are the symptoms of teeth

GRINDING?

While grinding your teeth or clenching your jaw occasionally is normal and unlikely to cause long-term problems, chronic teeth grinding can be a source of several health problems. Many people dealing with the effects of bruxism are unaware of grinding their teeth until major symptoms begin to appear.
Some of the most common symptoms of teeth grinding include:
Neck and jaw pain.
Weakened enamel
Changes in tooth shape
Broken teeth
Headaches
Migraines
TMJ disorders
Trouble sleeping
If you’re suffering from any of these issues, we can help you determine if teeth grinding is the cause and develop an effective treatment and prevention plan.

Night Guards

If you grind your teeth during sleep, we can make you a custom night guard to alleviate bruxism and treat and prevent negative symptoms. Our night guards are designed to be resistant yet flexible so you can be perfectly comfortable while you sleep.

Crowns

Crowns are protective dental replacements usually made out of ceramic or porcelain that are placed over the damaged tooth. They look just like your natural teeth and are an excellent treatment option for damage caused by excessive grinding.

    I am very happy to have gone through my fast braces journey with Dr. Jeena as I received the best treatment from Dr. Jeena and his kind and friendly team. The process went by easily, I was made to feel comfortable, and it took a short period of time. I had teeth extracted too, and to my surprise, I felt no pain whatsoever. Their facilities are very beautiful and well-kept too. I can say with great confidence that Dr. Jeena is the best dentist, and I recommend him for all.

    From the initial phone call with Nabeela, it was an immense pleasure; they even went as far as giving my toddler some paper and pens to write and play with.
    Dr. Jeena was professional and meticulous with his work. I felt no pain or discomfort throughout my appointment, and my little one was fascinated with the fish in the rooms.
    Thank you, Houghton Dental!

    I am so happy with my overall experience and final results of my teeth. Dr. Jeena is professional, and all the staff are so friendly.
    I went to Dr. Jeena to straighten my teeth for aesthetics; however, I am so impressed that my bite has been improved, and chewing is so much better. I would highly recommend Dr. Jeena.

    Dr. Jeena and his dental team are exceptional. I appreciated the fact that there was never a waiting time, and braces could be adjusted in half an hour. I loved how caring they always were in always doing post-appointment follow-ups. Thank you for the best 8 months of treatment, and I would recommend Dr. Jeena and his team 110%.

    Professional practice. The staff were very friendly and comforting during the whole journey - especially the assistants. With all the changes came some discomfort and adjusting, though I'm slowly embracing the beautiful results. Super grateful, thank you to the team for the extra boost of confidence and such a worthwhile experience!

    Dr. Aadil Jeena is the best dentist I have ever visited. The technology he has available and the way he uses it to identify problems and explain them to the patient is only exceeded by his excellence in performing the work required to fix those problems. I had a completely painless tooth extraction, thank you, Doctor!

    Dr. Jeena and his team are simply amazing. I traveled all the way from Cape Town to have my braces done, and I'd do so 1000 times over. The staff is friendly and goes out of their way to accommodate patients. Dr. Jeena is gentle and always checks up the following day on how you're feeling and the progress of your teeth. I've found my lifetime dentist and will certainly keep traveling for the amazing and compassionate services at Houghton Dental.

    Dr. Jeena has a wonderful bedside manner that makes something as nerve-wracking as a first-time root canal seem like nothing to worry about. The only dentist to ever call me after a procedure to make sure I was okay. He is friendly and efficient, and I would definitely recommend him to family and friends.
