How Do Teeth-Grinding Treatments Work?

Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, is a condition in which individuals clench or grind their teeth — often unconsciously and in their sleep. This can contribute to an overdeveloped jaw muscle and cause issues such as pain, discomfort, headaches and damage to the teeth. At OLA Aesthetics, we offer nonsurgical treatments to address teeth grinding, strategically administered to reduce clenching and tension in the lower face or jaw. This can help alleviate your symptoms and protect your teeth from further damage.

The OLA Experience

Consultation

At OLA Aesthetics, your teeth-grinding treatment begins with a private consultation. During your consultation, you’ll meet with Dr Aleks or Dr Indi to discuss your needs and concerns. We’ll also conduct a thorough examination to recommend the best approach for addressing your concerns and develop a personalised treatment plan.

Preparation

Once a treatment plan has been established, we will guide you through the preparation process. This may involve avoiding alcohol, caffeine or certain medications before your appointment to optimise treatment outcomes. At your consultation, our team will provide you with all necessary pre-treatment instructions to ensure you are fully prepared for your procedure.

What Is the Average Downtime and Recovery?

Teeth-grinding treatments at OLA Aesthetics are designed to be minimally invasive, allowing for a quick and straightforward recovery. Most patients experience little to no downtime, making it possible to resume daily activities immediately after your procedure. You might notice mild swelling, bruising, discomfort or muscle fatigue in the treated areas, but these symptoms are typically short-lived and resolve within a few days.

What Results Can Jaw Clenching Treatments Achieve?

At OLA Aesthetics, jaw clenching and teeth-grinding treatments are focused on improving functional issues related to bruxism. After your procedure, you can expect to see a gradual reduction in the size and activity of the masseter muscle, which contributes to less tension in the lower face and jaw to alleviate your symptoms. It can take up to four weeks for treatment to take effect, but results last for three to six months once they develop.
