Are you a secret tooth grinder?

Posted: 22 February 2012

Are you a secret tooth grinder? Then take our tooth grinding test to find out…

Do you suffer from any of the following?

* Aching jaw joints?
* Aching and sensitive teeth?
* A stiff or painful neck?
* Frequent toothaches?
* Morning headaches?
* Difficulty/limitations opening your mouth?
* Tension type headaches?
* Migraine headaches?

If you suffer from more than one of these symptoms, you are probably a tooth-grinder or clencher and may need our Liverpool dentistry advice.

Many people grind or clench there teeth while they are asleep without realising it. As clenching and grinding your teeth involves some of the most powerful muscles in the human body. With repeated exertion of these muscles they become painful and cause tension and strain to the surrounding muscles, joints and soft tissues, which is responsible for causing Migraines, tension and morning headaches as well as toothache, tooth wear and chipping.

Tooth grinding can also be brought on by stress and anxiety, leading to similar symptoms if the problem is not treated. You could end up needing to visit our dental implant Liverpool based clinic!
