Tooth Wear and Pain

Why is there concern about tooth wear, isn't it just about the teeth? Toothwear could be a sign of sleep apnea, which often results in morning headaches. Tooth wear can also be a sign of tooth/jaw mal-relationship. Tooth grinding and clinching can lead to headaches, jaw, ear, neck, and facial pain because of over worked muscles. So, if you, or a loved one has tooth wear this could be a sign of a more serious underlying problem. The common mouthguard made by most dentists protect the teeth, but its underlying cause is not being correct.



Yours for better health, Dr. Roubal
