If your a grinder and either ignore the dentists warning to wear one because it's uncomfortable at first or feel you don't need it you'll be sorry. Long term effects for me have been excessive wear to the point where at 30 my dentist told me I had the wear of a 55 year old. I've had multiple root canals and crowns because of it. It's cost me lots of money and will cost me lots more over the next bunch of years.
I hate to sound like I'm lecturing but as someone who totally regrets not taking better care of his teeth early on I hope people can get informed. Take the time and measures to protect yourself and save money and avoid pain in the long term.

If you are grinding your teeth.
Get a night gaurd and use it.
You will forever regret it if you dont take this serious.
Quasi... Same problem with me.
Grinded the fk out of my teeth.. and now its pretty bad..
You arent lecturing, its the absolute truth.
Although stress "can" be related.
It may not be the case.
Get it looked at, checked out, and wear the mouth gaurd.
