What Is Teeth Clenching?
Teeth clenching is the involuntary tightening of the jaw muscles and pressing of the upper and lower teeth together. It can occur during the day (awake bruxism) or at night during sleep (sleep bruxism). While occasional clenching may not be harmful, chronic clenching can cause:
- Jaw pain or stiffness
- Headaches or facial soreness
- Worn, chipped, or cracked teeth
- Gum recession
- Tooth sensitivity
- TMJ disorders
Causes of Teeth Clenching
- Stress and anxiety
- Sleep disorders
- Misaligned bite (malocclusion)
- Caffeine or alcohol overuse
- Certain medications
- Lifestyle habits
Treatment Options for Teeth Clenching
At Ulsan Simple Dental Clinic, we create a personalized treatment plan based on the cause and severity of your condition.

A specially designed mouthguard worn while sleeping helps reduce pressure on your teeth and jaw.
2. Botox for Jaw Relaxation
Botulinum toxin injections can relax the overactive jaw muscles, offering long-lasting relief without affecting chewing.
3. Stress Management Referrals
We can recommend resources for reducing stress or anxiety that may be contributing to your clenching.
4. Bite Correction or Adjustment
If your clenching is related to a misaligned bite, we may recommend adjusting certain teeth or orthodontic solutions.

FAQs About Teeth Clenching Treatment
Is clenching the same as grinding?
They are related but slightly different—grinding involves moving the teeth back and forth, while clenching is a firm pressing together.
How long does a nightguard last?
With good care, a custom nightguard can last
several years.
Is Botox safe for jaw treatment?
Yes. When performed by trained professionals, Botox is a safe and effective solution for jaw muscle tension.
Can this be treated in one visit?
Some treatments, like Botox, can be done in a single visit. Nightguards may require two short visits: one for impressions and one for fitting.
