Ahhh ok yeah good shout! Is it also a pregnancy thing? Or Can start the clenching in pregnancy? Never noticed before x
It can be tension too can't it with anxiety and clenching
Well more likely due to stress of the pregnancy you can start clenching more since your body is going through changes etc. you might have done it a little before pregnancy but it got worse during it. Can never know with these things x
True Thankyou x
So most likely you are grinding or clenching your teeth and that is causing the discomfort with tmj. You are overworking the muscles and prob don't even know you are doing it. I've seen it a lot as a dental nurse. If you have an NHS dentist I would suggest to go see them about it and ask them to make you a mouth guard to wear at night. They can do the basic one for free if you complain about your tmj being sore and it affecting your day to day life x
