Dental fears are real! These fears, along with anxiety and phobias lead to avoidance of dental treatments, and that's in no way healthy for your teeth.
Temporomandibular Joint Disease (TMD/TMJ) and bruxism is caused by clenching and grinding of teeth during sleep.
Talking to a psychiatrist can help with stress, anxiety, and fears.
