Grinding teeth diagnosis – blame the dentists
I believe that dentists are part of the blame for the common damages and denial of grinding teeth.
The reasons why dentists are part of the blame are:
1. The diagnosis of grinding teeth is not easy and dentists are afraid to tell a patient he is a teeth grinder when he is not or to tell a person he is not a teeth grinder while he is one.
2. Dentists are not educated enough with grinding teeth issues.
3. Dentists are not aware of all the solutions to stop grinding teeth
4. Dentists do not want to start grinding teeth care as it may involve solutions from other medical disciplines and may not always work
