People grind their teeth for many reasons; only some hurt themselves. The latest research illuminates more reasons for this harmful behavior and will make you question whether what you've been doing to help is in fact the right thing to do. Is there a simple way to know what to do?

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
1. Screen their patients for sleep bruxism beyond looking at their teeth
2. Describe some of the reasons why people brux, and some reasons why they don't
3. List what treatment choices are available after the best diagnosis is made
