Hey,
I always grinded my teeth and my jaws were really sore
I got the gum shield thing and it was so much better
but now i have braces
and my jaws are killing me again!
What can i do?
Thanks

Grinding teeth?
It seems to depend on why you're grinding your teeth. If it's a bite issue, that should be solved when your braces have done their job.
In the mean time, you can:
1. Open your mouth wide and massage both jaw joints, located near your ears.
2. Do some light exercise before sleeping to alleviate stress.
Hope this helps.

Reply:It may be time to investigate WHY you grind your teeth. I grind my teeth in my sleep and have braces, but recently found out that I do it as a reaction to an allergy.
Reply:A quick fix would be to go to your local store and grab a sport mouth guard. Heat it in some warm water and bite into a few times to help customize it to your teeth-- that will help it fit more comfortably. Also use Ibuprofen and heat packs to help with the discomfort.
