I have been grinding my teeth for the last 3 years, and I am currently using a night guard for it. Is there any other treatment that can help control teeth grinding without using a night guard?

Teeth grinding often develops over time because of stress, anxiety, poor sleep, jaw imbalance, or tight jaw muscles. Wearing a night guard can protect your teeth from damage, but it might not stop the grinding itself. Many people still grind their teeth at night, especially if stress or sleep issues are not addressed. Improving your sleep habits, managing stress, cutting back on caffeine in the evening, and doing relaxation exercises before bed may help reduce grinding for some people. Jaw-stretching exercises, physiotherapy, meditation, and avoiding jaw clenching during the day can also help ease muscle tension. Sometimes, dentists may suggest bite correction, counselling, or treatment for sleep problems, depending on the cause. In more serious cases, you might need specialist care, such as muscle-relaxation therapy or injections, after a proper evaluation. If you notice jaw pain, headaches, clicking sounds, cracked teeth, or increased tooth sensitivity, it?s important to consult a dentist. Long-term grinding can slowly harm your teeth and jaw joints.
