More information
At the Dr. Hernán Dental Clinic we treat bruxism in Carabanchel, relaxing the maxillofacial muscles with a combined treatment: Michigan splint and the application of botulinum toxin.
In this way, it is not only possible to solve the oral damage that bruxism may be causing, but also the excessive ‘shape’ that the facial muscles have, which is why, in some cases, it is possible to soften the features.
Other direct consequences of bruxism
Bruxism has other direct consequences in the mouth:
- wear down the teeth: being able to reduce their size significantly
- fracture enamel
- destroy the bone that supports the tooth
- mandibular osteoarthritis or joint problems in the jaw
- etc.
