Why Do I Constantly Feel The Need To Clench My Teeth?

Did you feel pain in your teeth or jaw in the morning after you woke up?

Have you fixed one or several metal-ceramic or ceramic crowns lately?

Do you feel discomfort in your mouth while eating or drinking?

Do you often experience difficulty falling asleep or do you often wake up in the middle of the night due to a uncomfortable sensation?

Do you find yourself constantly annoyed or feeling depressed?

In the past 1-2 months, have you faced a major unpleasant situation?

Have you ever had temporomandibular joint disharmony before?

Have you noticed cracks in one or several teeth in your mouth?

Do your teeth feel more sensitive than usual?

It seems you are not got used to your crowns and your subconscious is trying to fix this problem. You are likely to clench your teeth due to the fear of your newly fixed crowns being loose and can probably fall off. Using a protective tray can help you solve this problem. Schedule a visit to your dentist for the individual tray making.

You don't seem to have any problems relating to clenched teeth and it is likely that the action is just a habit. Schedule a visit to your dentist if you begin to feel pain in your joints or headaches.

You are displaying some signs of teeth clenching. Such a condition is typically seen among individuals who have sleeping issues or a neurotic disorder. Recovering from the condition is possible if the disorder is detected and treated in time. Schedule a visit to your dentist for more information. Scheduling a visit to a neuropathologist or psychotherapist is advised as well.

Unfortunately, you are displaying numerous signs of teeth clenching due to a nervous condition called bruxism, which is typically seen among individuals who are experiencing stress. Bruxism can lead to teeth cracking and strong dental abrasion which in turn can cause increased teeth sensitivity. Headaches and tinnitus may also accompany these symptoms. Recovering from this condition is possible if the disorder is detected and treated in time, so schedule a visit to your dentist as soon as possible. In the meantime, using a protective individual tray can help you reduce abrasion.
