DENTAL BITE GUARDS

Some patients find their teeth do not meet exactly – the ‘bite’- and other factors such as stress can cause them to grind their teeth at night thus making their condition worse.

These symptoms of Occlusal Disease can manifest themselves as headaches, facial, neck and shoulder pain, weakening of teeth and breakdown of gum attachment.

At Norfolk Hose we are in many cases able to treat such symptoms by the employment of bite guards and selective grinding of destructive tooth contacts.

These principles governing the way teeth bite together are vital when constructing a number of large fillings or crowns, if they are not applied the dentist may iatrogenically initiate the symptoms listed here.
