I've had multiple dentists ask if I grind my teeth in my sleep because I have very flat canines, but I've never noticed myself grinding my teeth and no one has ever mentioned to me that they've noticed me doing it. |

My girlfriend says that I consistently grind the hell out of my teeth.. especially when alcohol has been involved. Its so bad that apparently it wakes her up from a deep sleep! Why is this? Does anyone else have this problem? |

I'm your right-hand man but my schemes are left handed. I've got the world on my shoulders, a monkey on my back, my head in the clouds, and my ear to the ground. I've got stars in my eyes, my eyes on the prize, and my nose to the grindstone. A baby face, a glass jaw, a dirty mouth, a harelip, a silver tongue, and a deep throat.

Bruxism. My mom has it and it's really bad. If you talk to a doctor about it they'll probably advise you to get a mouthguard so you don't damage your mouth. |
|
I sleep with a mouth guard. I would recommend it to anyone who has problems with grinding, clenching, or sensitive teeth. It is a little hard to get used to at first, but after a few nights you won't even notice it. |

What the other's said. My mom has it bad too |

I grind my teeth horribly. I never did until my mom died and now I do it all the time. I ground through 2 mouthguards and now I can't sleep with mouthguards cause they always wake me up..go figure. |

Previously known as DeepBluSurf on Dreamviews.
I have had the same problem. It is usually accompanied by tension in the face, neck, or shoulders. Such extreme forms of tension usually point toward unresolved mental/physical conflicts. |

I also suffer from this, stretching works very good. |

I used to notice horribly strong teeth grinding on myself in the middle of the night a lot, but when I started to have SP about 10 months ago, I never had teeth grinding since... strange... |

I grind my teeth too, anyone have a special brand of mouth guard the can recommend? i tried one brand and tge would hurt my teeth. Now they are a little crooked, so i stopped wearing it. |

I think I used to ground my teeth in my sleep because I'd have dreams where I'd start uncontrollably clenching and grind back and forth, side to side. It was a few months after it started that I realized I was probably doing it in real life as well since I'd wake up doing it. I don't think I do it anymore though since I haven't dreamt of it or woken up with lockjaw in a while. I used to have very sharp canines about a year or two ago but they're flat at the tip now. Kinda sucks cuz, when I was little, I thought my fang-like canines were so cool. :[ |

I grind my teeth too every nigth when I'm asleep. I did not know you could buy different kinds of mouth guards. I got one for free from the public system because i was under 18. I had to bite in what felt like gum and they made a mouth guard out of that so it fit my teeth. It might be expensive to buy one of these if you are over 18. |

Suffered from this all through my childhood, now it's only once in a while. As far as I know, anyway. |
|
Are you stressed or depressed? For a good while my dad told me I would grind my teeth a lot every night. Eventually I started grinding my teeth so hard that I would wake myself up from it. This happened during a time in my life where I was experiencing a lot of stress and I was also depressed. Ever since overcoming the depression I haven't had the problem since. |
|
I must do it too, because lately I wake up in the morning with an achy, clenched jaw that feels like I've been pushing it down all night, and I feel the urge to make a big yawn to stretch my jaw the opposite way. |

DILDs: A Lot
I started doing this too recently. |
|
Although relaxation and mediation techniques are recommended approaches, one can supplement with Magnesium Citrate in order to help sooth the muscle connections during sleep, creating less pressure or less likelihood of grinding teeth all together. |
|
Only if you already have low magnesium in your diet. Which most people don't. |
