Teeth grinding or bruxism is a sleep-related movement disorder that wears down teeth because of excessive friction between teeth. This is an involuntary condition that affects 8% of adults. A third of parents also report symptoms of teeth grinding in one or more of their children. If left unprotected, the protective enamel that prevents tooth decay may be stripped away completely.

Protect your teeth from wearing down by using these protective mouth guards.
