Lately I have a strong urge to clench my teeth together (it is usually accompanied by grinding of the teeth as well). This has never happened before. I tried to resist the urge but when I did my bottom jaw started shaking as if I was cold. I do not believe I am under and serious stress and I do not have any illnesses. What could this be?Please help.
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The clenching habit can be because of the stress or abnormal coordination between muscles and nerves. Consult an oral physician and get it evaluated. If you are stressful, lead a stress-free life. Meanwhile you can take a muscle relaxant like chlorzoxazone. Stress can worsen these conditions so be calm. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
