Your jaw deserves a holiday break too! While you’re checking off gift lists and juggling family gatherings, your teeth might be bearing the brunt of seasonal stress through unconscious grinding and clenching, also known as bruxism.
This sneaky habit often strikes during sleep or intense moments, leading to worn enamel, headaches, and potential TMJ issues.
Don’t let holiday tension wreak havoc on your smile. Try stress-busting techniques like evening meditation, gentle jaw stretches, or a warm compress before bed.
To treat TMJ in Waukegan, IL, start with a consultation for a custom night guard. It’s like giving your teeth their own cozy winter blanket. Remember, taking care of your dental health is the gift that keeps on giving.
