Hello Dear All,
I usually experience some quiet days with little to no tinnitus once or twice a week. However, I've noticed that my tinnitus always returns after I've had a nightmare the night before, and unfortunately, I have frequent nightmares. When the tinnitus comes back loudly, it typically takes 2 to 4 days to calm down, only to be triggered again by another nightmare.
Two years ago, a dentist mentioned that my back teeth show signs of grinding, indicating that I may be clenching my teeth at night.
Would it be logical to conclude that I suffer from night bruxism, which aggravates my tinnitus repeatedly and prevents it from gradually fading away?
I recently started using a standard mouthguard, but it doesn't seem to stop me from clenching my jaws at night. I believe I may need a specialized mouthguard called an anterior bite guard, which is designed to prevent grinding at the back of the mouth.
I would greatly appreciate any feedback or advice from this supportive community.
