Dear lybrate-user, grinding of teeth while asleep is called bruxism. This can be due to stress or emotional disturbances or sometime idiopathic (without any cause). I suggest you get a night guard made for yoursef and wear it during night. It will protect your teeth from grinding against each other. Night guard is made up of very smooth plastic like material.

Hi it is an unconscious habit. You can see a dentist. He will give you a bite gaurd/njghtgaurd which you will have to wear at night for a minimum of 6months. And slowly the habit will stop.

Brutish is a grinding habit and happens when a patient is under some sort of emotional disturbance. Only way to break the habit is to get a night guard made which is to be worn while sleeping. This way your teeth would be protected from attrition and sensitivity which may occur in future with regular grinding of teeth.
