Jaw Pain Treatment and Grinding Relief in Ilkley
Grinding and clenching habits, especially at night, are very common and can cause severe jaw joint pain and frequent headaches. At The Burley Dental Suite, we provide expert treatment for a range of jaw conditions.
During your assessment appointment, we conduct a thorough examination of your jaw, facial muscles, and how your teeth come together. This helps us diagnose your condition accurately and tailor treatment accordingly. Most patients benefit from a stabilisation splint, a specialised acrylic bite guard that repositions your jaw to help muscles relax, reducing pain and headaches caused by grinding and clenching.
Stabilisation splints require follow-up appointments, typically three months after fitting, to monitor progress and make adjustments.
Jaw pain and grinding are complex dental issues, but our team brings specialist skills gained from working in advanced clinics directly to Ilkley, providing you with expert care and relief.
Having the splint fitted is one of the best decisions I’ve made. The difference was instant. My face feels relaxed, and I no longer worry about grinding my teeth. It’s like having Ugg boots for my teeth. Thank you!
At The Burley Dental Suite, we understand how disruptive jaw pain can be to your daily life. Our personalised approach means we use the best treatment modalities available, combining expert diagnosis with effective devices like stabilisation splints to help you regain comfort and wellbeing.
