Grinding: What IS that noise?

Grinding:

Grinding is one of the most commonly asked questions in our office bar none!  Noise generated during grinding can be very difficult to listen to and may disrupt sleep patterns at home or while on vacation .  The level of wear that is created through grinding on primary teeth rarely causes a serious problem. However,  After finishing orthodontics and growth slows down, a custom fitted night guard can be used to protect the permanent teeth against any wear while reducing and evenly distributing clenching forces when grinding occurs.  Feel free to contact as if you have any further questions regarding grinding.
