Hi, I seem to have been biting the sides of my tongue in my sleep for the last couple of weeks and the spots are now like little holes and dont seem to heal.  Ive been told that I have stress fractures all through my teeth from clamping my jaw too tight when I sleep.  I also snore quite badly apparently.  What do you think it could be and what would you recommend please?  Theyre very painful.
Held, Thanks for sharing your concern in this forum, What you are having is medically termed as bruise. I think in nighttime you are facing this problem...it is generally due to stress, anxiety,bad Chat Doctor. . You are constantly getting traumatic bite on your tongue...which may produce traumatic ulcer... I would suggest you consult with Dentist as soon as possible...you have to decrease your stress.... Proper clinical examination is required for you... If there is any sharp cusp then grinding can be done... You may have malocclusion too...it has to be corrected...as your teeth are getting fractured, so proper x-ray is required to see the extent of fracture...Don't neglect this may lead to temporomandibular joint pain.... Get your proper treatment done... Wish you good health... Regards....
