What is the cause of having flattened teeth, have you happened to have this kind of this condition? If you are then this blog will help you to widen your knowledge.

Teeth Grinding or commonly known as Bruxism is a condition wherein you grind, clench your teeth. This may happen when you are awake and when you are sleeping. According to studies, they said it is related to high stress and anxiety, sleeping disorder and those people with abnormal bites.

Some questions ask if teeth grinding is bad for your teeth. Then the answer is yes. What will happen if we keep on grinding our teeth?

After 25 years of trying to find a good dentist in KL have finally found one that is well equiped, knowledgable, skilled and good value. Lovely staff. The only downside is the parking but if you park ay MainPlace and walk across then it’s easy. Update 2022…I am still using this excellent dentist as they remain the best I have experienced over the past 26 years… Dentists, nurses, reception and equipment all top notch… Highly recommended.
