Geographic Tongue/Bruxism (Teeth Grinding)

Goatworshiper

Just wondering if many people suffer from teethgrinding or geographic tongue?

Also any tip on easing the conditions? Im in the process of waiting to get a diagnosis to find out if I'm on the spectrum, but just wondered if people on the spectrum sufferred from any of the above conditions as I do.

  • Regarding Geographic Tongue, there's a high correlation between Autistic spectrum disorders and auto-immune system disorders (which it appears Geographic Tongue might be a form of).

    It's only a correlation, so, having an autistic spectrum disorder doesn't imply that you will have an auto-immune disorder, nor does having an auto-immune disorder imply that you will have an autistic spectrum disorder.

    But having an autistic spectrum disorder means you're more likely to also have an auto-immune system disorder.

    I have both Asperger's Syndrome and Crohn's Disease (a chronic inflamatory bowel condition), just as an example.
