I've had terrible tooth pain this past week from a new bridge & taking lots of OTC pain meds. Teeth grinding during sleep is powerful & it's stressing the teeth under it, seen on X-ray. Mouth guards are too hard no matter what kind. So, what I did was place the corner of my nice, puffy comforter on the bridge side to soften the blow as I slept, also a soft baby towel & damn if it's not working. I will talk to my dentist about making a tooth pillow until teeth & inflammation settle down, lol.
Sorry Rose! I grind my teeth too! It’s no fun! May you get relief soon!
@HeyLiberty Oh, I know. It's bad, and a tough one to overcome and causes all kinds of problems. I'm doing much better with my own little treatment. I can probably sew a mouth pillow myself as a temporary treatment, lol.
I hope you get enough relief to accomplish that goal!
