Bruxism is the involuntary habit of clenching or grinding the teeth, usually during sleep. It is closely related to:
Customised resin device that is placed at night to relax the jaw and protect teeth from wear and tear.
It is custom-made. After the first few days of use, the patient adapts easily.

In some mild cases, if the cause (stress, occlusion) is resolved, bruxism may disappear.
