Stress shows up in all kinds of ways. Maybe you’ve felt it in your shoulders, your sleep, or even in your stomach. But did you know it can also take a toll on your smile? If you’ve been clenching your jaw, noticing more sensitivity, or feeling extra tension lately, your teeth and gums might be feeling the pressure too. At Clinton Dental Center in Chesterfield, MI, we help patients understand how stress impacts their oral health and what they can do to protect it.
