Bruxism, or teeth grinding, affects a lot of people. While some people may do this on purpose during the day, it is more of an issue while you are sleeping at night. Grinding your teeth can erode the enamel, wear down the teeth, aggravate your gums, and cause jaw pain. If it is loud enough, the sound of your teeth grinding could even wake up your spouse.

You Might Think About Using a Sleep Guard if You Grind Your Teeth

The night guard acts as a barrier between your top and bottom teeth while you sleep and is quite similar to the mouth guards used by athletes. Every night guard is individually adjusted to ensure comfort and enable optimum ventilation. Your dentist will make an impression of your teeth so that a dental lab can make the night guard. The lifespan of a night guard is up to ten years, and they are extremely durable.

There are also some things that you can do to try to stop teeth grinding. You can train your jaw to be free and easy rather than clenched. Refrain from chewing gum or on other objects like pens. You should also avoid alcoholic drinks and drinks with caffeine, as these can increase the likelihood you will grind your teeth.
