Gen Z, this one’s for you.
Late nights, overthinking, stress — and unknowingly grinding your teeth while you sleep?
That jaw pain, ear discomfort, neck stiffness, headaches or migraines could be stress-induced teeth grinding (bruxism).
✔ Manage stress with breathing exercises & pranayama
✔ Seek counselling if needed
✔ If grinding continues, a night guard can protect your teeth and jaw
✔ A dentist can guide you towards a long-term solution
Stress shows up in the mouth too.
Don’t ignore the signs — take care before it becomes a bigger problem.
