Studies show that chronic stress has harmful consequences for teeth, such as <strong>clenching<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Have you ever noticed that when you&#8217;re stressed, your teeth ache? For many, the symptoms of stress are teeth grinding or pressure exerted by clenching the jaw. Over time, this pressure leads to <strong>irreversible wear of tooth enamel<\/strong>, which can increase tooth sensitivity. Tooth clenching can also lead to<strong> temporomandibular joint problems<\/strong>. Difficulty opening and closing the mouth, jaw locking, headaches and even neck pain can all be negative effects of stress. In severe cases, a tooth may<strong> fracture<\/strong> under the pressure of clenching and require an extraction.<\/p>\n<p>At your follow-up appointment with your dentist, he or she can detect the first signs of clenching or grinding, allowing a solution to be found before the problem becomes too serious. Your dentist may suggest that you wear a<strong> night guard<\/strong>, which is a transparent mouthpiece, to protect your teeth from the pressure caused by your jaw movements. Don&#8217;t hesitate to ask our dentists any questions you may have.
