Teeth Grinding Relief in Pleasant Grove, UT

Teeth grinding causes many different issues that affect the health of your smile. Also known as bruxism, this condition occurs while the patient is asleep and unaware of their actions. Martineau Family Dental provides treatment for bruxism and teeth grinding in Pleasant Grove, Utah. If you suffer from this condition, call 385-316-6323 and visit our dentist, Dr. Zach Martineau, for treatment.

Bruxism is the grinding and clenching of teeth. It can occur at any time, though it is more common at night while you are asleep. Bruxism is one of the largest contributing factors to tooth damage but is often misdiagnosed or undiagnosed due to the fact that it is one of several potential causes of tooth wear.
