Teeth grinding or clenching, which may be loud enough to wake up your partner. Teeth that are flattened, fractured, chipped or loose, worn tooth enamel exposing deeper layers of your tooth, tied or tight jaw muscles, or a locked jaw that won't open or close completely.
Ever woken up with a sore jaw or a headache and wondered why? Craig Allen dives into the puzzling world of bruxism, more commonly known as teeth grinding, in this episode of 'Zero to Hero'. With his signature raw and honest approach, Allen uncovers how anxiety and stress can play a significant role in this often-overlooked condition.
Bruxism isn't just about clenching your teeth at night; it can happen during the day too, leading to a range of uncomfortable symptoms like jaw pain, headaches, and even worn-down teeth. This episode breaks down the various causes of bruxism—whether they're physical, psychological, or genetic—and offers practical solutions to manage it. From mindfulness exercises to stress relief strategies, Allen provides a toolkit for anyone grappling with this issue.
Whether you're a teeth grinder yourself or know someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable advice. It's a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the deeper connections between mental health and physical well-being.
