Question:
Dentists???What causes stress fractures on the teeth?
and what can be done to prevent them from happening?
Answers:
Stress fractures are caused by grinding, clenching and parafunctional habits such as bruxism. These may be attributed from daily stress, but not all. My daughter grinds at night (bruxism) and she is only 5 yrs old. You can stop grinding by wearing a biteguard or a nightguard or remove the cause of your daily stress (ie - change jobs).
