Why is Teeth Grinding Up 70%?

By Regency Dental Group Includes video

This video talks about WHY more people are experiencing teeth grinding and clenching (bruxism), with recent data indicating a significant rise noted by over 70% of dentists. We'll explore common causes such as stress, sleep disorders, misaligned teeth, and lifestyle factors like tobacco and alcohol use. Also, we'll cover why nighttime bruxism often goes unnoticed, the role of night guards in protecting teeth, and how to address the root causes through stress management, medical consultations, and orthodontic care.
