Does anyone know how I can stop grinding my teeth in my sleep?
i used to do that and so did my brother, so i got a gumshield. It worked but i dont know if i do it anymore or not. Your dentist should really prescribe you with one but mine never either. You can pick one up from any sports store for about 3 quid, you dont need an expensive one unless you like punching yourself in the face while you sleep too lol. Avoid sugar, have fruit instead and dont bite things you dont need to like your nails for eg the grinding will make your teeth really brittle and they will keep chipping! xx

Reply:go to the store and buy a guard for your teeth. They are like the ones football players use. They are in the dental section. If you can't find one then your dentist needs to get you one. He should have already done this.
