In daily life, the phenomenon of grinding teeth while sleeping can occur at any age, and it can occur in both men and women. Generally, people, especially adults, have this condition because of excessive work pressure, which leads to emotional anxiety, so they express it by grinding their teeth while sleeping. So, what is the reason why women grind their teeth? First, what is the reason for women to grind their teeth? Types of teeth grinding: Grinding teeth often after falling asleep at night, which is often called nocturnal bruxism. Patients grind their teeth or clench their teeth during sleep. Clenching: You often clench your teeth unconsciously when concentrating during the day, but there is no grinding of the upper and lower teeth. Mixed type: Both nocturnal bruxism and daytime clenching of teeth. Excessive mental excitement causes the excitation and inhibition processes of the cerebral cortex to lose balance, inducing temporary irregular spasms or contractions of the chewing muscles, resulting in nocturnal bruxism.Second, parasitic intestinal parasites can also cause bruxism. It’s best to check your stomach during the day to see if there are any worms. Adults have them too. Eating too much before going to bed can disrupt the digestive function and excite the brain cells that manage digestion, causing teeth grinding through reflex action. Unbalanced nutrition, especially unbalanced nutrition in every meal and picky eaters, can easily lead to deficiency of calcium, phosphorus and other elements, causing teeth to grind back and forth. Sleep time: It is best to rest on time at night to eliminate tension and release stress reasonably. If it is not necessary, please do not take sleeping pills at will. What is the reason why women grind their teeth? The main harm is that although nighttime grinding does not cause any temporary pain, it can cause severe wear of the occlusal and adjacent surfaces of the teeth in the long run, and may cause complications such as the above-mentioned diseases. Intractable bruxism can lead to periodontal tissue destruction, loose or displaced teeth, gingival recession, and alveolar bone loss. Both adults and children are picky eaters. They eat more of what they like and never eat what they don't like. This can easily lead to an unbalanced nutritional intake. For example, lack of calcium, phosphorus, and various vitamins can cause teeth grinding at night, and may also cause you to unconsciously clench your teeth when you concentrate during the day. |
