FrostyPhoenix+FollowMy Secret Fixes for Nighttime Teeth GrindingEver wake up with a sore jaw or headache and realize you’ve been grinding your teeth all night? That was me—until I found a few tricks that actually helped. 💡 Try a 5-minute breathing or meditation session before bed. It seriously chills out your jaw and mind. ✅ Ditch caffeine and alcohol in the evening. Herbal tea is my new go-to, and my sleep is way better. 🔔 Get a mouth guard from your dentist (or a drugstore one if you’re on a budget). It’s a game changer for protecting your teeth and keeping the peace at night. ⚠️ Massage your jaw and practice relaxing it during the day. Sounds weird, but it totally works. Hope this helps someone else stop the grind! #BruxismRelief #SleepTips #DentalHealth #Health #Wellness50Share
