If your dentist has seen evidence of teeth grinding (aka, bruxism), you should follow every recommendation so the problem doesn’t escalate-- to prevent tooth damage.

This is how teeth grinding is usually treated:

First, you need to know what’s the root cause. If it’s stress, try practising stress management techniques.
Custom mouth guards are the most common form of treatment.
A splint is another oral device that can reduce the wear and tear on your teeth caused by constant griding.

Your dentist or specialist in temporomandibular jaw disorders (TMJ) may offer additional suggestions on how to treat this problem.
