Nightguard for Teeth Grinding

The sound of your little one grinding his teeth while sleeping can be unsettling. Nearly a third of American children have this tendency. Although most will grow out of it, children are not the only ones with this nocturnal habit. According to the National Sleep Foundation, approximately eight percent of adults are teeth grinders as well.

New Yorkers, along with the rest of the country’s adults, are under a great deal of pressure these days. It seems there are stressors at every turn, so grinding and clenching your teeth unconsciously is not surprising. The damage bruxism could be causing to your teeth and oral health may be surprising. Cracked or broken teeth are common among such individuals.
