Teeth clenching/Teeth grinding.

[My_Story]

Anyone else do this??
I dont realise Im doing it but my fiance tells me to stop. Its giving me such bad headaches, jawache and painful teeth. I think its due to my pregnancy after rpl anxiety.

I tend to teeth clench throughout the day and teeth grind at night when asleep.
Never ever did this before I was pregnant.

My poor teeth/jaw/headaches!!!

Anyone else do this? And how can I try stop? Or help the pain...

Oh, no. I feel awful for you. I do this when I'm really anxious, and I have a mouth guard for it. You can buy these over the counter (I live in the US though). They form to your mouth, and you sleep with them in.

Thank you ever so much for the advice!!

Im not sure where Id get one of those in the UK.
Maybe a dentist?
Unless one of you lovely UK ladies have any help?

I do this regularly in my sleep, and I was able to get a mouth guard from the dentist that I sleep in. They will mould it to fit your teeth. I don't wear mine all the time but I've noticed I was definitely grinding last night because my jaw is killing me today so I am going to dig it out for tonight.
