Why You Wake Up With Headaches and a Sore Jaw
Some people are told about it by a dentist, who notices worn teeth. Some are told by a partner, who can hear it. And a great many people never get told at all. They simply wake up most mornings with a dull headache around the temples, a jaw that feels tired, and a vague sense of not having rested properly, and they put it down to stress or sleep or getting older. Night time clenching and grinding is extremely common, most people doing it have no idea, and it produces a recognizable set of symptoms that frequently get attributed to something else.
