Bruxism is when a person grinds their teeth, often in their sleep. The teeth grind or rub together as the jaw moves with intense pressure either side to side or back and forth. Many teeth-grinders aren’t even aware they’re doing it. Research shows that 80% of teeth grinding happens at night.

Do you sometimes wake up with a tension headache or soreness in your jaw or face? Do you have tooth sensitivity and worn enamel on your teeth? Has your sleep partner complained about the grinding noises you make at night? If you’ve answered yes to these questions, you may have sleep bruxism, a condition in which you subconsciously grind or clench your teeth at night.
