Ask HN: Has anyone fixed their own bruxism?

I’ve clenched my teeth for 9-10 years. It either happened from a bike accident hurting my left jaw, wisdom teeth extraction, or stress from starting a business. All three happened pretty near together. It is not malocclusion, dentist ruled that out.

I clench. No longer damaging my teeth as I have a guard. But I still have tight masseters and neck pain.

I would like to eliminate or reduce the habit. Has anyone succeeded in doing so?
