Teeth Grinding/Clenching?!


Question:

Teeth Grinding/Clenching?

Hi =]

I have had ear pains for as long as i can remember, this year they have unfortunately got really bad. So, my mum and i have been going to all these doctors, and at this very moment they ALL say i'm clenching/grinding my teeth. I have got a couple of x-rays done,1 today say

The temporomandibular joint on the right appears narrowed and there is reduced foward translocation on the functional views. If anyone can translate please do!!

Also i'm going back to the dentist to have a bite plate made!

Thanks, if anyone has this problem or could help us work out what that x-ray meant!
