Bruxism: It is very likely that you have a habit of grinding on your two front teeth while you sleep. This can cause soreness of the tissues around the roots of the teeth as well as slight mobility of the teeth. You should see a dentist to evaluate your occlusion (bite), rule out other causes, and consider the use of a night guard.

See dentist: It appears that you are traumatically grinding your teeth. Many variables, does your dentist know about this? Many times your bite(occlusion) may be off due to a new restoration. Have your dentist check your occlusion, it may be recommended to see an orthodontist , your occlusion may be selectively adjusted or the dentist may fabricate a nightguard.

Nocturnal bruxism: is the medical term for clenching or grinding teeth during sleep. See your dentist for evaluation and night guard fabrication.

Mobility: You are probably clenching and/or grinding, doing damage to the tissues that support your teeth. You may need a protective night guard. You may need Orthodontic treatment. You may need medication support. Go see your Dentist.
