Do you grind your teeth during the sleep or in the daytime, the grinding of teeth is very common in people, but why do people grind their teeth? What causes their teeth to grind?
Let's know,
Some people may grind their teeth unknowingly only during the night or during the day time as well. Bruxism is the medical term for teeth grinding. It can be caused due to anxiety, medications, stress, etc.
However, it is common in the people who snore. Snoring occurs when the muscles like uvula, tongue, etc. relax and get back of our throat which blocks the pathway of air and causes difficulty in breathing.
The bruxism opens the pathway of air again. The grinding of teeth causes movements in the relaxed muscles. This causes the muscles to get back to their original position, which opens the pathway of air.
