The compression for my face and neck after a facelift is causing me severe pain in my jaw and teeth--is that normal?

I have always had issues with teeth grinding and wearing this garment has been excruciating. I feel like I now have lock jaw. I went back to the surgeon and he gave me one that's a little better but I cannot sleep at night. Is this a normal reaction?
