Welcome!
Welcome to my little spot on the web!
I’ve named the blog Breaking My Teeth because of the bruxism I have as a result of C-PTSD. I clench and grind my teeth so hard that I have broken my teeth. I have also worn the enamel off my teeth. You can see right through them! I will have to have dentures soon. The first thing my new dentist asked me after his assistants had done a comprehensive examination was, “What happened to you?”. He asked me this because he knew that unresolved trauma often results in bruxism such as mine (both waking and sleeping). He said the results of my bruxism are the worst he’s seen in his career thus far. The professionally made custom fit guards that are supposed to last 3 years are only expected to last half that time for me.
I’ll go into more detail about this and whatever else comes to mind in future posts, but this is the first post on this new blog so I just wanted to clarify the name and the reason behind it. I sincerely hope you’ll come back and read posts often. I’ll be doing both written posts and vlog-style posts. I plan on publishing 2 posts per week… Wednesday and Saturday. Of course, this could change at any time depending on my schedule and readership.
