Snoring and Teeth Grinding (Bruxism)
What Is Bruxism?
Bruxism is the grinding or clenching of teeth usually at times of stress, high concentration and during sleep.
In many instances the person who has the habit is not aware of it. Often it is the spouse who hears the grating and grinding sound during the night from a partner bruxing during sleep.
Children can also grind their teeth. The sound is often so loud that it can be heard beyond the bedroom.
Moderate to severe sleep Bruxism if left untreated can result in jaw pain known as TMJ (temporomandibular joint) pain, headaches, damaged and loose teeth and gum recession.
For the treatment of sleep Bruxism, SomBrux is worn during sleep to prevent tooth damage caused by grinding, and to alleviate jaw and muscle pain. Similar to a mouth guard, SomBrux provides a protective barrier between your tooth surfaces.
Your SomBrux is custom made to be a precise fit and allow you to have full range of mouth opening and closing. You will be able to talk, yawn and drink water while wearing the splint.
