Bruxism is a condition in which you grind, gnash or clench your teeth. Bruxism may happen unconsciously when you are awake (awake bruxism) or clench or grind the teeth during sleep (sleep bruxism). It can be resolved by botox injection and night guard.
Botox (Botulinum toxin) injections relax the muscles of the face which resolves the clenching habit. It is not a permanent treatment, it usually lasts for around 3 to 6 months.
A mouthguard is a protective device for the mouth that covers the teeth and gums to prevent and reduce injury to the teeth, arches, lips and gums. It is used in case of bruxism
