that's funny because that's from my favorite manga berserk and it's the main character clenching their jaw but I probably sub consciously picked that as my avatar because of the tmj LOL

wearing a mouth piece should help. ever since I joined MMA and wear mouth piece everytime I train, it relieved my TMJ & lock jaw. I chew my mouth piece like bubblegum/uncooked meat.

I'll have to try that. Maybe I'll get one of those mouth guards you ware while you sleep to help alleviate the clenching.

make sure u elevate your head so you do not have aspiration pneumonia. (saliva going in to your trachea) when wearing mouth piece.

GET A CORRECT TYPE OF MOUTHPIECE. I wear mine during fights not during sleep. you should get what is prescribed by your MD.

For sure I'll make sure to get what my doc tells me.
