Are there any home treatments for tooth pain from grinding teeth?

Grinding teeth pain: The best way to eliminate pain from teeth grinding (bruxism) is to stop. This, however, is not easy because most bruxism occurs at night during sleep. In most cases, a custom made night guard supplied by your dentist will prevent the tooth pain. It's possible your pain is from a decayed, infected, or fractured tooth. See your dentist for an exam and suggestions to treat and prevent bruxism.

Diagnosis needed: You need to determine the cause of your grinding problem that leads to pain. Your dentist can make you a mouth guard to protect your tissues and reduce the level of pain while the cause of your grinding (malocclusion, skeletal imbalance, muscular imbalance, stress, parafunctional habits, reaction to medication, etc) is determined. No, you can't fix this with an otc.

Night guard: Only for the night time use. During the day keep your teeth apart and control your clenching habit by self physical therapy. There is no medication or appliance to prevent teeth grinding. Rec.: see orofacial pain specialist in your area for more information and management.

Yes to both but...: Any home treatments should not be performed unless you have been recommended to do so by a dentist and/or a TMJ/TMD specialist. An evaluation as far as your symptoms including a check of the teeth that are affected by the grinding. A mouthpiece may be indicated to protect the teeth and hopefully help with the tooth pain

Possible: Daytime clenching. You can stop it. "Lips together, teeth apart". Night time, you need help. Ask your dentist for night guard.
