Bruxism Treatment

Sleep-Related Bruxism Treatment at Palmetto Sleep

At Palmetto Sleep, serving patients in McDonough, Zebulon, Fayetteville, and Palmetto, we focus on helping individuals manage sleep disorders such as sleep-related bruxism. Unlike traditional dental practices, our approach emphasizes how bruxism connects with sleep apnea and other sleep health concerns.

What is Sleep-Related Bruxism?

Bruxism is the involuntary clenching or grinding of teeth during sleep. While stress and certain lifestyle factors can contribute, it is also closely tied to sleep apnea and other breathing-related sleep disorders. Common signs include jaw tension, morning discomfort, and interrupted sleep, which can impact overall health if left untreated.

Our Approach to Bruxism Management

At Palmetto Sleep, we begin with a thorough evaluation to determine how bruxism may be affecting your sleep quality. Using advanced diagnostic tools, we identify patterns and explore the relationship between bruxism and sleep apnea. This comprehensive assessment allows us to tailor your care as part of a broader sleep health plan.

Integrating Bruxism Care with Sleep Apnea Treatment

Our team does not provide dental devices such as night guards. Instead, we focus on strategies that address the root causes of bruxism within the context of sleep health:

• Treating underlying sleep disorders, such as sleep apnea, which can reduce bruxism episodes.
• Offering lifestyle recommendations and relaxation techniques that promote healthier, more restful sleep.

Benefits of Our Sleep-Focused Approach

By addressing bruxism as part of overall sleep care, patients experience:

• Improved sleep quality and nightly comfort.
• Fewer disruptions caused by clenching or grinding.
• A holistic plan that supports better long-term sleep health.
