🏋️♂️💪 Lifting heavy at the gym? Don't let your teeth take the hit! 🦷⚠️
Do you clench your teeth or bite down HARD during heavy workouts? 😬🔥 You might be putting your teeth under more pressure than you realise!
🚨 Here's what excessive clenching can do to your teeth:
🦷 Microcracks & fractures — tiny cracks can develop and sometimes progress into bigger fractures.
😬 Worn-out teeth — repeated excessive forces can contribute to tooth wear.
⚡ Tooth sensitivity — feel a sudden zing when drinking something hot or cold?
💥 Jaw pain & muscle fatigue — your jaw muscles can take a beating too!
💡 How can you protect your smile? 🛡️✨
✅ Avoid unnecessarily clenching your teeth during workouts.
✅ Get your bite and teeth checked if you notice pain, sensitivity or visible cracks.
✅ Consider a properly fitted sports mouthguard if appropriate for your activity.
✅ If you grind or clench your teeth regularly, ask your dentist whether a custom night guard is suitable.
🔥 Train hard. Lift strong. Protect your teeth! 💪😁
