Posted by Adam Powell
Your dentist might have made a special splint designed especially by your teeth formation in order to stop grinding teeth. The splint is one of the most common devices used but also has major disadvantages regarding grinding teeth:
1. The splint itself may cause health damages.
2. The splint is good for stopping teeth grinding for a short term but not as an infinite solution
3. The splint does not prevent all damages that may be causes by grinding such as damage to the ears and head aches
