HEALTH

Stress can negatively affect oral
health, contributing to teeth
grinding, gum disease, and
other dental issues while
impacting overall well-being
and quality of life.

Teeth Grinding
Stress often leads to teeth grinding or clenching
during sleep, which can result in worn teeth, jaw
pain, TMJ issues, and heightened tooth sensitivity.
Gum Disease
Chronic stress weakens your immune system,
reducing its ability to combat gum infections and
potentially causing gingivitis, periodontitis, and even
tooth loss over time.

Dry Mouth
Stress decreases saliva production, leading to dry
mouth, which hampers food and bacteria removal
and increases risks of cavities, bad breath, and
other oral health problems.
Canker Sores
Stress can cause painful mouth ulcers called
canker sores, making eating and speaking
difficult while contributing to discomfort in
daily activities involving the mouth.

Neglecting Oral Hygiene
During stressful times, oral hygiene routines are
often neglected, increasing risks of cavities and
gum disease due to inconsistent brushing and
flossing habits.
