Another teeth grinding question?

I know I grind my teeth. now my one ear is tickly and weird sometimes. The Specialist suggested a splinth. and a panoramic x-ray, I had done. I probably have TMJ and now have to go to the orthodonist to get fitted for the thing because when I close my mouth all the way it feel a little tension in the jaw. I think due to the way they rearranged my bite when I was 12 and had braces. My dentist kinda agreed this might be the problem. the ear thing is a total drag. Anyone ever have this problem???


thank you very much.

Another teeth grinding question?
Yep, had the same problem. Lots of ear ringing when the grinding is bad.


did you wear your retainer at night after you had your braces?


The top guard to sleep in helped me.


Get a lot of sleep. When I%26#039;m too tired, I grind more. Forget the gum. I miss that.


Try to relax your jaw. That is not as easy as it sounds.


If you are young you have a good possiblity of getting past it.


Mine doesn%26#039;t stay bad all the time.


Wear ear muffs, in cold wind.


If your room is dry, get a humidifier. The sinus seems to have an effect on how much I grind. I don%26#039;t think it%26#039;s the most important thing, but it does help with the ear thing. Don%26#039;t worry you are not goin deaf. If it bothers you when you sleep get a sound machine, play it low, you will relax more during your sleep.


Good Luck.
Reply:I grind my teeth too. One dentist said that he couldn%26#039;t believe how hard I must grind my teeth (as my gold crown was almost worn down smooth).





The splint is a live saver....but I don%26#039;t have any related ear problems. Sorry.





Good luck to you!
