Bruxism
Grinding is a joint problem wearing a tooth costume.
What it is
A guard that does not change the bite is a mouthpiece for a war. Bruxism here is treated as a mandibular position problem. If the joint is fighting, the teeth will keep paying. We record, deprogram, and rebuild vertical dimension so the muscle has a place to rest. Then ceramic — if it is still needed — can last.

TENS and a therapeutic orthotic before a single tooth is prepared.

Length in the lower third. The grind has nothing left to hunt.
Stop treating the wreckage. Treat the trajectory.
