Stress and anxiety are common triggers for teeth grinding. During the holidays, you often face changes to your normal routine, financial concerns, travel commitments, family obligations, and sleep disruptions, all of which can elevate your stress levels.

When you’re stressed, you may unconsciously clench your jaw or grind your teeth. This can happen while you’re awake or while you’re asleep — often without you realizing it. Individuals often only become aware when dentists spot the signs during a routine examination or a significant other hears the sounds of grinding during the night.

With the holiday season comes family gatherings, celebrations, traveling, gift shopping, and packed schedules. While this time of year brings a lot of joy, it can also cause a lot of stress. For some individuals, this holiday stress can show up in an unexpected way: teeth grinding and jaw clenching.

This habit, known as bruxism, can happen during the day or while you sleep. If it occurs too frequently, it can put excessive pressure on your teeth and jaw, potentially leading to discomfort and dental damage.

If undergoing orthodontic treatment, ensure change happens gradually and in a controlled manner. Rapid movement can increase the risk of root resorption. Orthodontists should take periodic X-rays to detect any early signs of root resorption and adjust the treatment accordingly.

Root resorption is when your body breaks down and absorbs the root structure of a tooth. This is a natural process for children when they lose their baby teeth and receive their permanent teeth. However, when an adult’s teeth start to break down, it’s a sign of a serious issue. Root resorption can significantly damage permanent teeth. It can happen externally, often as a cavity, or internally, within the pulp of the tooth.

In addition to brushing, you don’t want to skip out on flossing if you want to avoid a root canal. Flossing is an integral, but often overlooked, part of the dental hygiene routine. An estimated 20% of American adults state that they don’t ever floss. However, by foregoing this essential step in your oral hygiene routine, you allow bacteria to multiply, putting your oral health at risk.

A root canal is an incredibly reliable way to address infected tissue within your tooth. While this care is an incredibly important part of dental restoration, you want to do everything in your power to avoid these appointments. This dental care is often preceded by persistent pain, tender gums, and discomfort while eating or drinking.

Even if a tooth doesn’t appear badly broken, a traumatic impact can damage the inner pulp of a tooth. In some cases, the pulp is only inflamed and can recover. In other situations, the damage is irreversible, causing the pulp to eventually die.

If the inside of your tooth can’t heal on its own, you may need root canal therapy. During this procedure, an endodontist removes the damaged pulp, cleans and disinfects the inside of the tooth, and fills and seals the empty space with a safe material.

This procedure eliminates damaged tissue while preserving the patient’s natural tooth structure.

An endodontist will start by determining exactly what happened to your tooth. They may examine the tooth for cracks, mobility issues, discoloration, tenderness, and changes in sensation and use advanced 3D imaging to spot hidden damage.

A thorough evaluation helps endodontists determine whether the pulp, roots, surrounding bone, or other structures have been affected.

When a sports injury affects the pulp, an endodontist can help save it. Endodontics is a branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing and treating problems involving the dental pulp, tissues, and roots of teeth. With timely treatment, even a severely injured tooth could be saved rather than extracted.

Sports help you stay active, build teamwork skills, and have fun, but they also put you at risk of dental injuries. A hard impact from a soccer ball, a hockey stick, or an accidental fall on the field can damage your smile. While some sports injuries may only affect the outer surface of the tooth, others may damage the pulp — the soft center of the tooth that contains nerves and blood vessels.
