At a recent dental conference, Dr. Gordon
Christensen remarked that there are between
500 to 1,000 bite splints waiting to be made
in every dental office. He estimates that
one-third of people either brux or clench
their teeth, which results in tooth damage.
He also stated, “If a dentist merely ‘watches’
patients as they wear their teeth down, he
or she is practicing supervised neglect and
contributing to continued tooth destruction.”
Teeth have cervical abfraction lesions
thought to have been caused by bruxism.
