BRUXISM

Are you tired of waking up with jaw pain and restless nights?
Find peace and tranquilly by breaking free from tension and anxiety.
  • Teeth grinding and jaw clenching often occur involuntarily, triggered by negative emotions.
  • These repetitive actions can turn into unconscious habits, even without an immediate stressor.
  • Frustration, anger, anxiety, stress, irritation, competition, and determination commonly contribute to teeth grinding.
  • Sometimes, you may not even realize it, but when you experience anxiety, stress, or determination, your jaws clench or teeth grind.
  • It's as if you're preparing yourself for challenges, propelling forward, and strengthening your resolve.
  • This behaviour can even manifest during sleep due to its subconscious nature.
Signs and symptoms of bruxism may include

Damaged teeth: Chipped or flattened teeth due to grinding.

Tooth sensitivity and pain: Discomfort when consuming hot, cold, or sweet foods/drinks.

Jaw joint issues: Problems with the temporomandibular joint, leading to pain and limited jaw movement.

Discomfort in the neck and face: Muscular tension and headaches due to jaw clenching.

Disrupted sleep and general fatigue: Grinding teeth during sleep can lead to restless nights and fatigue.

Bruxism & Stress:
  • Bruxism, or teeth grinding, is often closely linked to stress and anxiety.
  • When you feel overwhelmed, your jaw muscles may clench involuntarily, exacerbating bruxism.
  • Not only present stressors but also past frustrations and anger can trigger teeth grinding.
  • During work tasks or routine activities, stress can sneak in and worsen bruxism.
Finding Empowerment in Relationships John was struggling to assert himself in his personal relationships. Whenever he tried to speak up, his partner's furious reactions left him feeling overwhelmed and helpless. But even when he chose to remain silent, the anger within him persisted, leading to a deep sense of frustration and powerlessness. Sadly, his teeth suffered the consequences of this internal turmoil. The impact was twofold. John experienced nighttime grinding that disrupted his sleep, and during the day, he clenched his jaw during moments he held back from expressing his true thoughts and emotions. Through our sessions, we explored the root causes of John's fear and anxiety. We delved into the experiences and beliefs that had contributed to his struggles. As he gained insights and understanding, John started to experience a remarkable shift. The clenching and grinding began to subside, no longer serving as his default coping mechanisms. Instead, he learned healthier ways to express himself and set boundaries. John started to navigate his relationships from a place of authenticity and self-assuredness. This transformative process allowed John to take control of his life. No longer held back by the fear of conflict, he discovered a sense of empowerment and a renewed direction in life.

She bravely began to process and release these long-held emotions. As she embraced self-acceptance and forgiveness, Sarah experienced a profound transformation.

Through therapy, Mark began to process his experiences and release the emotional burden that had taken a toll on his jaw and overall well-being. As the healing progressed, Mark gradually found relief from the constant clenching and grinding. By addressing the traumatic memories, he discovered a new sense of peace. Mark's story serves as a reminder of the complex interplay between our emotions, experiences, and physical manifestations.
