Bruxism

Bruxism treatment

Bruxism is a parafunctional grinding of teeth, usually occurring at night and associated with stressful situations or a certain type of face – strongly expressed masticatory muscles (deep bite and short lower third of the face). Bruxism is diagnosed by dentist during a dental examination. A generalized enamel wear and dentin exposure is visible. Injection treatment of masseter muscle is based on small dose injections of botulinum toxin. Botox weakens muscular activities, thus reducing tooth wear. Masticatory function is not reduced.

The procedure should be repeated every 4-6 months.

I have been visiting Pilėnė for many years. Only the best marks to all the doctors for the quality of their work, thanks to them the fear of dental treatment is reduced, they work gently and the nurses are always supportive. A special hangover for the hygienist Jūrate. Thorough, kind, never in a hurry and always pleasant.

My heartfelt recommendation

I would like to thank orthodontist Živilė and her assistant very much for their excellent work and for giving me a smile.I had been having dental complexes for 15 years, and now I can smile with confidence. Questions were always answered during the visit, including quick replies by email. I really recommend it, the visits are short but everything is done precisely. Good luck with your smiles 🙂
