Question : I have bruxism problem during sleep. I grind teeth while asleep. I heard that this problem can occur due to a worms as well. So I am taking albendazole for worms first before visiting dentist. I wanna ask how to take albendazole. Do I need to chew it or do I need to take it with water and swallow it?
Bruxism reasons could be
1. You grind your teeth at night, which you may not be aware of2. Lot of stress
3. Anger issues
4. Habits like nail biting, tongue thrust and other
5. Cervical
6. Nerve related
7. Imbalaced bite
8. You are eating only from one side or eating on one side more than the other.
9. Genetically
10. Wisdom teeth
11. Teeth conditions
Do you have headaches when you wake up? If the answer is yes then the Chances are higher of bruxism/ Teeth Grinding
2. Splints
3. Deprogrammer
4. Balancing the occlusion
5. Occlusion Appliances
and many more
also, you can take a muscle relaxant and one anti-inflammatory for the time being
follow up is a must in cases like this.
