Bruxism is an oral habit that is usually due to psychological stress or occlusal discrepancy. It occurs more often in children than adults. Damage to the teeth caused by bruxism is irreversible. However, the underlying cause should be treated in order to avoid further dental and periodontal problems.
磨牙症是一种口腔习惯,通常由心理压力或咬合差异引起。它在儿童中比在成人中更常见。磨牙症对牙齿造成的损害是不可逆的。然而,应治疗潜在病因以避免进一步的牙齿和牙周问题。
