Occlusal trauma: Fair percentage of people under stress exhibited clenching or grinding of their teeth. Prolonged clenching caused the teeth to come together for longer time and probably with greater force to the teeth and surrounding bone. This caused pain on the area that receive the trauma the most. A splint can spread the pressure and reduce focal trauma to an area. See dentist for evaluation & treatment.
