How do I know if I'm grinding teeth and how can I stop it?

I think I grind my teeth at night but I%26#039;m not sure. Sometimes when I wake up my jaw is really stiff and my teeth hurt a little.


What can I do to stop this?


Why does this happen?


Is it because I ate before going to bed? Or is it from stress? What? I don%26#039;t wake up with a stiff mouth all the time, but I did today and it%26#039;s a little scary. So what do I do? Is this serious?

Its called %26quot;Bruxism%26quot;, and although common, it can cause some very serious problems. Your dentist can make you a nightguard. You can also try one of the sports guards they sell over the counter to try to break you of this habit. It is usually a symptom of stress.
Reply:It can be stress related
