Stop the Grind: Professional Bruxism Care in Lahore
Are clenched jaws or morning headaches wearing you down? Teeth grinding—or bruxism—can quietly damage your smile and disrupt your life. At Smile Studio Dental Clinic, we offer expert diagnosis and customized treatments to protect your teeth, relieve tension, and restore your comfort—day and night.
Why Treat Bruxism Early?
- Prevent Permanent Damage: Ongoing grinding wears down enamel, causes cracks, and even leads to tooth fractures or loss.
- Relieve Pain & Tension: Chronic clenching strains your jaw muscles, triggering TMJ disorders, migraines, and neck or ear pain.
- Improve Sleep Quality: Night‑time grinding disrupts rest for you—and anyone sharing your space.
Timely intervention preserves your smile and enhances your overall well‑being.
When to Seek Help
Book an appointment right away if you experience any of the following:
- Persistent jaw, neck, or facial pain lasting more than a day
- Severe headaches first thing in the morning
- Chipped, cracked, or loose teeth
- Difficulty opening your mouth fully
- Noticed grinding sounds while sleeping
- Concern about your clenching or grinding habits
For urgent discomfort, call us immediately—your emergency is our priority.
Common Triggers We Address
- Stress & Anxiety: Tension and heightened emotions often manifest as unconscious clenching.
- Sleep Disorders: Conditions like sleep apnea can aggravate nocturnal grinding.
- Bite Issues: Misaligned or missing teeth create uneven forces that lead to bruxism.
- Lifestyle & Medication: Certain personality traits, medications (including some antidepressants), and habits can increase risk.
- Underlying Health Conditions: Associations exist with neurological or systemic disorders such as Parkinson’s, GERD, or epilepsy.
Recognize the Signs
You may not always feel the grind—but look for:
- Worn or Flattened Teeth: Enamel erosion exposing deeper tooth layers.
- Jaw Muscle Fatigue: Morning stiffness, tightness, or a “locked” jaw.
- Facial Pain & Headaches: Sharp or dull aches radiating through your head, face, or ears.
- Cheek or Tongue Damage: Bite marks on soft tissues inside the mouth.
- Sleep Disruption: Grinding noises or restless nights, noticed by you or your partner.
Tailored Treatment Options
- Occlusal Guards (Night Guards)
Custom‑fitted appliances cushion your teeth and redistribute force while you sleep. - Bite Correction & Restorations

We collaborate with sleep specialists to diagnose and manage underlying sleep disorders.
