I'm a clencher
Yowch. My left jaw has been hurting for awhile now so I finally went in to get it looked at. Turns out I'm a "clencher". One who clenches and grinds their teeth in their sleep. I don't even know I am doing it because I'm asleep, but it's true. So, I am going to have some x-rays taken of my jaw bones and muscles and then I'll get a plastic teeth shield that I will wear for 6 months to help prevent more clenching. Crazy. Aren't I too young to have stuff like this happen??

it's actually more common than you think...and you're not old :)
Ever since I posted this, I've had conversations with friends who also have this problem. Whew! I'm glad I'm not the only one...
Love you, Rene-friend!
