Many people grind their teeth at night and never know it. They wake up with sore and sensitive teeth and maybe even constant headaches, but can’t figure out why. Because tooth grinding usually occurs when you are in your deepest sleep this grinding and clenching can go undiagnosed until your teeth are severely damaged. They crack, chip, wear down and even the enamel at your gumline can break off, leaving nerves exposed. That is why it is important to ask your dentist to evaluate you for both TMJ and Bruxism on a regular basis. It can save your teeth!
