Do you grind your teeth in your sleep?

@just bee I am currently wearing a dental guard at night and had no idea that I was literally grinding like a beaver at night.  I  had 4 lidocaine injections last month for TMJ and  my dental guard currently has holes where one can see light thru it.  YES, TMJ can make your jaw, teeth and head feel like you could possibly have a brain tumor it is so sore.  Check this out and take care!
