Lifestyle Habits That Worsen Jaw Misalignment

Certain lifestyle habits can worsen jaw misalignment over time. Clenching or grinding your teeth, a condition known as bruxism, places undue stress on the jaw joint. Poor posture, particularly while working or using electronic devices, can also contribute by straining the neck and jaw muscles. Other habits, such as chewing on one side of the mouth or using teeth as tools, can create uneven wear and further shift the jaw out of alignment. Awareness of these habits can help prevent additional strain on an already misaligned jaw.
