Let’s discuss - Bruxism or Teeth Grinding 
This happens when you clench your teeth commonly due to stress. The symptoms are
The treatment for this is using mouth guards /splints and relieving stress.
Suffered with this many times.. have tried mouth splints also but the problem persisted. What are other solutions?
Bruxism can happen in stressful conditions and even during sleep.
Treatment options-
Mouthguards (Night Guards)
Think of this like a soft or hard cover for your teeth, worn at night. It doesn’t stop grinding, but it protects your teeth from damage. Like a helmet for your teeth!
Stress Management
Since stress and anxiety are big triggers, learning how to relax helps:
Try meditation, yoga, or breathing exercises. Get enough sleep. Avoid caffeine or alcohol before bed.
Behavioral Therapy
If you grind your teeth while awake, a therapist can teach you how to become aware of it and stop. It’s kind of like breaking a bad habit—like biting your nails.
Dental Fixes
If your teeth don’t align properly, your dentist might suggest the following options:
Adjust your bite (called occlusal adjustment)
Fix misaligned teeth with braces or dental work
Well, now I understand. I thought I was the only one who felt this, but seems normal. Well I’ll adopt these.
Yes I suffered.
Ya have experienced myself too
Yes, I still suffer from bruxism. I went through some highly stressful situations a few year ago and unknowingly developed this teeth grinding habit while sleeping.
I remember earlier, I had to massage and adjust my jaws into place before having something(eating), then only it would feel right. I still experience that lingering pain in my jaws sometimes.
Teeth grinding or Bruxism is more common than what we think. Teeth grinding during sleep is a common issue.
Whenever im in such situations especially when holding my crying it happens. Surely give those a try.
Is it similar to the sleeping grinding teeth problem?
I’ve experienced jaw pain during stressful times, often from clenching my teeth without realizing it. It caused headaches and discomfort. Using a mouth guard and managing stress really helped me.
If it’s not working with mouth guard, it’s better to get your occlusion (Teeth alignment) checked once. It could also lead to teeth grinding.
Teeth grinding can be surprisingly painful and stressful. Using a mouth guard and finding ways to relax can really help protect your teeth and ease the jaw tension.
Bruxism can be effectively managed with simple solutions like mouth guards and stress relief techniques. With proper care and relaxation, you can protect your teeth and enjoy a healthier, pain-free smile!
