Do teeth die due to tongue-hard pushing?

2022-01-04 10:39:24
Hii doctor, I have a habit of constantly hard pushing my side teeth using tongue. I don't know why it is but I can't control it. Is the hard pushing to my teeth with tongue supposed to damage or make my side teeth die due to rapid movement? Do you think that it is that hard to cause me teeth problem?
