Grinding teeth / jaw clenching

White_Dragon

Hi all

I have just been thinking about a lot of my teeth and jaw issues may relate to my frequent teeth grinding and or jaw clenching.

Anybody else suffer with this issue? And if so have you found anything to help? Are chew toys any good was just looking at them but not sure….any thoughts would be very welcome .

Had a lot of jaw and tooth pain and stiffness this week….

  • I tend to tense my jaw and if I'm stressed I do it too much over a few days it kicks off my wisdom teeth , mine are impacted and are horizontal behind my back teeth and if they're aggravated it's a savage pain as it pushes from back to front on all my teeth in a row. One of them has pushed the tooth it's behind over to one side and broken of a chunk of my jaw too.

    I find chewing some gum , but not for too long as that can make it ache/worse and just remembering to relax a bit helps.

    I have a similar issue with wisdom teeth that have grown at a funny angle, although I’ve had one removed now. The whole jaw and teeth combo brings on a lot of pain and muscle discomfort.
