How to Find Out If You Grind Your Teeth at Night (Bruxism Recorder)
On this page (3)
Most people who grind their teeth at night (bruxism) don’t know it. A sore jaw or headache in the morning can be a sign. SleepSay listens for the grinding sound while you sleep.
Record a night
- Put the phone within 1 metre of your pillow, on charge.
- Set Sensitivity to High: grinding is quieter than snoring or talking.
- Tap Start the night.
Check the morning report
- Clips labelled Teeth grinding are counted in the summary, for example "3 teeth grindings".
- Tap a clip to hear it. Every sound is marked on the loudness curve of the night.
- Wrong label? Use Fix label; SleepSay learns from your corrections.
Follow it over time
Record several nights and tag your evenings (for example Stress, Caffeine or Alcohol) to see what seems to make a difference. Share the clips with your dentist, or export your nights as a CSV spreadsheet.
SleepSay is not a medical device and cannot diagnose bruxism. If you grind your teeth often, talk to a dentist: a night guard can protect your teeth.
