Would a gum shield help me to stop biting down all the time?

November 6th, 2012
Q.

I tend to bite a lot in the day time- like teething. I don’t know why I can’t help it is like biting the thumb and things just habit? I always stop myself when I realise I’m doing it but the problem is I’ve been doing it already for two or three minutes. I also have gapped teeth so all I’m doing is making my oral health worse (not that the two are linked I mean in general) my friend said I could get a gum shield thing to help prevent this but then I had an idea, could Invisalign help me with the bite issue? Being as it takes the form of a gum shield type thing? If not what would I do as I am now looking to have my teeth pulled together.
