Bruxism Treatment
Bruxism is the involuntary clenching or grinding of teeth, most commonly during sleep. It is a fairly common condition. According to studies, approximately one in five people worldwide suffers from it. At the same time, many people are unaware of the problem until the first symptoms appear: tooth wear, headaches, jaw tension, or tooth sensitivity. Over time, bruxism can lead to damage of the tooth enamel, overloading of the chewing muscles, and problems with the temporomandibular joint.
Bruxism is especially dangerous if you have veneers, crowns, or fillings. Strong jaw clenching during sleep creates significant pressure on the teeth, which can cause such restorations to chip, crack, or become damaged. That is why it is important to undergo timely diagnosis and protect your teeth in order to avoid complex and costly treatment in the future.
At Kandinsky Clinic, bruxism is treated through a comprehensive approach involving both a neurologist and a prosthodontist, which is uncommon among clinics in Dubai. This is important because bruxism is related not only to dentistry but also to the functioning of the nervous system.
What Is Included in the Package Program
Specialist Consultations
Neurological Examination
The neurologist evaluates the condition of the chewing muscles and the impact of stress on the nervous system.
If necessary, the doctor may recommend additional treatment methods that help reduce muscle tension.
Dental Examination
The dentist assesses the degree of tooth wear, the condition of the bite, and the load placed on the teeth and jaw joints.
Diagnostics
Digital Jaw Scanning
Modern 3D scanning allows for the creation of an accurate digital model of the teeth, which is then used to manufacture a custom protective night guard.
Treatment
Custom Night Guard
A night guard protects the teeth from wear and reduces the load on the chewing muscles and jaw joints.
It is custom-made based on a digital scan, ensuring a precise fit and comfortable wear. The guard is transparent, resembles an aligner, and is virtually unnoticeable during sleep.
Botulinum Therapy (if indicated)
If, based on the examination results, the neurologist recommends botulinum therapy to relax the chewing muscles, the procedure at Kandinsky Clinic can be performed under ultrasound guidance, which is rare among clinics in Dubai.
This approach allows the doctor to inject the medication precisely into the tense muscle without affecting nearby muscles, nerves, or salivary glands. This makes the procedure more accurate, safer, and more effective.
Package Price
AED 2,000 instead of AED 2,450
The package includes consultations with two specialists, digital diagnostics, and the fabrication of a custom night guard.
This comprehensive approach helps not only protect the teeth from damage but also address the underlying cause of excessive jaw muscle tension.
Why You Can Trust the Doctors at Kandinsky Clinic
Kandinsky Clinic employs specialists with extensive clinical experience and narrow professional expertise.

The dental component of bruxism treatment is managed by a licensed Russian-speaking prosthodontist with more than 20 years of experience — the only specialist of this profile in Dubai.
If botulinum therapy is required to relax the chewing muscles, the procedure can be performed under ultrasound guidance, which is uncommon among clinics in Dubai.
This method allows the doctor to inject the medication precisely into the tense muscle without affecting nearby muscles, nerves, or salivary glands. This makes the procedure more accurate, safer, and more effective.
