Did you know teeth grinding anxiety affects roughly one in ten adults? With the stress of college, relationships, careers, and everyday life, everyone deals with anxiety. It’s how your body naturally handles it that can change the way you sleep at night. Some people’s bodies deal with anxiety by grinding their teeth at night. Here are a few common symptoms to see if you have teeth grinding anxiety and what you can do to prevent the damage from it.
If you go to bed at night with your partner, ask them to listen for any “clicking” or “popping” noises at night. These small sounds are a huge red flag that comes from a person’s jaw clenching throughout the night. Some sounds can be barely audible but if they listen closely they’ll be able to hear your jaw or teeth grinding. It’s one of the easiest ways to tell if you have teeth grinding anxiety.
Waking up consistently with morning headaches or migraines is another sign that you may suffer from teeth grinding anxiety. Your headaches are the result of your jaw clenching throughout the night paired with the pressure that is exerted on your teeth. Your jaw may be sore in the morning or the joints exhausted resulting in headaches from teeth grinding.
Sensitive teeth can also be a signal from your body that you are suffering from teeth grinding anxiety. When you eat or drink, if you find your teeth are hurting or in pain, it can be a symptom of teeth grinding at night. When you grind your teeth they are worn down and as a result not as strong or can experience nerve damage that can make eating painful.

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms on a regular basis, you may have a bout of teeth grinding. Ask yourself if you are feeling stressed from school, work, relationships, or other factors in your life. If you acknowledge that are you dealing with anxiety then you may be grinding your teeth at night. Subconsciously, your body will react to what you are dreaming or thinking about and if that’s stress, your body can clench up and be grinding your teeth without you knowing.
