About the Condition

What is Teeth Grinding?

Teeth grinding, or bruxism, is the unconscious habit of clenching or grinding your teeth, often during sleep. Over time, this condition can wear down tooth enamel, crack teeth, damage dental restorations, and cause persistent jaw pain and headaches.

At Rozenberg Dental NYC, we take a comprehensive approach to diagnosing and treating bruxism. Dr. Rozenberg identifies the underlying causes and recommends personalized treatment plans that address both the symptoms and the root of the problem.

Whether your grinding is caused by stress, bite misalignment, or sleep disorders, we offer effective solutions to protect your teeth and improve your quality of life.

Signs You May Be Grinding

  • Worn, flattened, or chipped teeth
  • Jaw pain or tightness, especially in the morning
  • Chronic headaches or earaches
  • Increased tooth sensitivity
  • Disrupted sleep for you or your partner
  • Facial pain or soreness around the temples

Dr. Lana Rozenberg is a specialist in her profession and possesses a vast and extensive body of knowledge. Back in the day, I went to a different dentist who was nothing near as experienced as she is.

Dr. Lana Rozenberg was amazing! She saw me for a complicated emergency root canal and even treated me after hours. She made the procedure as painless as possible. Her personal attention to patients and professionalism was outstanding. She is a Top Cosmetic Dentist. I would definitely recommend her highly.
