At Mapleridge Children & Adult Dentistry, it’s our goal to give each of our patients a beautiful smile that will last a lifetime. As your trusted Liverpool, NY family dentist, we’re glad to provide the dental care services needed for healthy teeth and gums. However, developing a lifelong, healthy smile is sometimes about even more than just committed care and oral hygiene. There are many habits you may have that can be very detrimental toward your teeth – and worse yet, you may not even realize you’re doing them! One of these bad habits that’s harmful to your smile is teeth grinding.
