Help?

Real quick:<br><br>I've been clenching my jaw in my sleep, although I've been having either no dreams at all or good dreams.<br><br>And it hurts. I can barely talk, and the way I curl my S' is awkward... Not the way I normally do it. <br>I noticed it today when I was half asleep in math... [I finished my test early], and woke up because someone dropped their calculator, and found that I was clenching my jaw.<br><br>Bit of help here? What do I do to stop this? It's been causing my migraines.. x.x

  • They have these retainer like things, you ut them in your mouth and it teaches you to stop clenching. After a month? Maybe a little more you learn not to clench anymore.
  • Most of it is because I have finals next week and some other issues.

  • Oh so because of stress? It could be just that then, try to get yourself very relaxed about sleeping, put music on when you go to bed, and maybe going to sleep relaxed will help? and even though you say you dont have dreams or are good, about half the dreams you have in the night you dont remeber so maybe there was a few about school?

    <br><br>No, most of them were good. I remember them. They might have been, though..<br><br>I'm scared... It hurts to the point where I can't eat, or talk, or even move my mouth to cry..

  • heat normally helps take a cloth with hot water and put it on your mouth. I would suggest a retainer thing though, even if it is stress you dont want to make your teeth worse. Or even be able to talk and eat etc. My brother was clenching for some reason, it might have been stress but we got him one and he stoped pretty quick, it was to the point he couldnt talk at all.

  • Mouthguards work wonders. Like vi said.<br>Real cheap too, compared to what orthadontists will try and sell you.

  • Well if you want your mouth to hurt, dont wear it. If you are fine the the discomfort (which you will get used to trust me!), you wont have your mouth hurt. Stop complaining and just do one or the other, we gave you suggestions, if you dont take them thats fine but stop posting just complaining because we dont have anymore suggestions just the ones we have said.

    <br><br>Well, I do understand that constant pain can drive someone over the edge and sometimes it helps to complain. She did buy a mouthguard, so why pester her about complaining? She took the suggestion. And yes, there are more remedies out there and I do have some more suggestions. ;)<br><br>You can go to an orthadontist and have them sell you a more comfortable and fit mouthguard designed for sleeping. I love mine. It wasn't too expensive either. Motrin/ liquid advil helps until you can get your issue resolved.

  • I understand that pain can drive you over the edge but almost all my sugestions got put down with some other exscuse (for lack of a better word).<br><br> I do have to say mouth guards will work wonders once you get used to it, or do go to the dentist has pepper said, and advil is amazing let me tell you. <br><br>Just get it fixed because pain is not a good thing, believe me. :wink:
