Idiot me bought one of those night guards. Made it worse.. Now I’m having tooth pain when I chew on about 4-8 of my teeth on the side with jaw pain. Not the actual teeth or gums but it has something to do with my jaw. Hope it will be back to “normal” tomorrow or I’ll probably go see a specialist.
@@Boricactuz I am not using any night guard. I will apply heat at night- to loosen the tightness. I had a dental hygienist tell me to get fitted for a hard guard (not the gummy ones because your teeth want to grind against something soft/gummy). Kinda like chewing gum. A hard one will stop you from grinding. I am seeing a TMJ specialist in Feb.
