Will this change how I chew?

Any procedure is planned conservatively to maintain comfortable chewing. Your clinician will discuss expectations and review.

How soon might I notice relief?

This depends on the option chosen. Behavioural strategies can help immediately; prescription options (if suitable) may take days to weeks.

Is there downtime?

Most clients carry on with normal activities. We’ll outline aftercare and what to avoid on the day of any procedure.

Can I book treatment without consulting?

No. Prescription-only medicines require a face-to-face assessment and are only provided if clinically appropriate.
