Could I be grinding my teeth at night?

When I wake up in the morning my teeth are all REALLY sore when I bite down! Especially the ones in the back, could I be grinding them without knowing it?

You could be grinding them while sleeping. On your next visit to your dentist address this with him and he should be able to tell you if you are or not. If you are they do have guards you can wear at night.
Reply:I don%26#039;t think that bruxism or night grinding can make your teeth really that sore. Go to your dentist you maybe suffering periodontal problems.
Reply:you may very well be, but it can also be that you are clenchig your teeth whe you are dreamig. It could also be t6hat you have periodotal problems (the gums). The best thig for you to probably do would be to go to the dentist. What you could try is going to a pharmacy and buy a night guard and see if it is i fact that you are grinding them. If you have little to no pain, that may be what it is.
Reply:It is totally possible! I just found out that I grind at night and had no knowledge of it. You also may be clenching your teeth as well.


Get with your dentist. If you are grinding or clenching they will be able to make you something to wear at night.


I let it go on so long, my teeth are actually begining to wear out, so get this taken care of as soon as possible.
Reply:Yes! Go to the dentist as soon as you can. The longer you wait the more your enamel(shiny, protective coating) will wear down.
