Bruxism Ireland was established to increase awareness of the growing condition called "Bruxism".
The definition of Bruxism is the unconscious act of clenching and/or grinding of the teeth.
Although research is limited compared to other conditions, it is estimated that around 8‐10% of the population will suffer from bruxism at any one time.
The goal of this site is to provide simple, straight forward information regarding the causes, effects, and treatments. We also provide some useful links and products that enable teeth grinders to manage their condition.
Until relatively recently, there appears to have been little awareness or interest in bruxism. Sufferers will often visit their GP or doctor rather than their dentist to ask what is causing their morning headaches and jaw pain. We would advise that you visit your dentist if you think you suffer from clasping or grinding your teeth.
With much more interest and understanding of the condition, at both a professional level and by frustrated bruxism sufferers, eager to find a safe, comfortable and affordable device to help protect their teeth and TMJ.
Over the coming months we hope to add extra features to this site such as a forum and peoples stories about dealing with bruxism. Your feedback is very important to us and very much appreciated so if you have anything to add please let us know on our feedback form.
