How to Quit Grinding Your Teeth

Called bruxism, teeth grinding can lead to jaw pain and cause significant damage to your teeth and smile. And most sufferers are probably unaware that they’re doing it, as it’s an almost completely unconscious behavior. 

The bite strength of grinding can be up to six times greater than normal chewing. So it’s no surprise that it can wear down or even break teeth.
