What is the difference between “tooth grinding” and “bruxism”?
Tooth grinding and bruxism are two very different things. They’re both symptoms of major disease in the mouth, but they are different. Tooth grinding is rubbing one tooth against the other and often wearing those teeth down. Bruxism is clenching the teeth together and then rocking the teeth. Because they are different, they are going to cause different problems in the mouth.
