Prevention of teeth grinding

We have probably heard many times that when life was difficult, we gritted our teeth and got through it. It is believed that many people clench their teeth when they feel stress, anxiety or when making decisions. However, we all do it to varying degrees. If we are more sensitive, we feel constant tension at work or in life in general. At night, stress is less controllable and can manifest itself in teeth grinding. The exact cause of this phenomenon is unknown. It is believed to be a phenomenon of the central nervous system or a form of sleep disorder. However, most agree that psychological stress is the determining factor.

Is fluoride really just poison?

One of the main areas of activity at our clinic is the prevention of oral diseases. Oral disease prevention is a combination of measures that are applied both at the clinic and, most importantly, at home. Oral care at home should be as simple, quick and effective as possible. It should not become a tedious, mentally demanding routine that you constantly want to avoid. There is a wide variety of products available in pharmacies and supermarkets. We have therefore selected the ones we consider most suitable for our clinic. The most important selection criteria are scientifically proven effectiveness and substantiated naturalness.

We are exploring the connection between teeth and the body with doctors from the Prosthetics and Implantology (PIK) Clinic: Dentist Jurgita Savickienė, Dentist-Endodontist Sandra Skuodaitė and Dentist-Orthopaedic Surgeon Raimondas Savickas.

Dental enamel demineralisation. What is it?
