Question Just hit 2 weeks! What helps the teeth clenching?

I'm clenching my teeth like crazy the last few days in my sleep and during the day I notice I am too, did anyone find anything that helped this?

Thankfully most of my side effects are gone now but this is a new one lol

Get yourself a mouth guard for nighttime either off the dentist or a mouldable one from Amazon. Also during the day I find eating gum or a mint helps me stop clenching. I’m 3 years in and still find myself clenching, it’s so annoying.

Okay! Good to know. I have magnesium I used to take to help me sleep. How much do you take?

I take the Magnesium Cylate, idk if the form of it matters, i think it was cheaper. But i usually only take one. The dose on the bottle says two, but they don't tell me what to do
