bruxism, or grinding your teeth at night is an inherited trait, has nothing to do with dreams or stress. It wears down teeth and damages dental work, so if bruxism is a problem for you or someone you know, I suggest a bite guard, you can get them in drug stores now.

It's probably just a habit of gritting your teeth. It could very well be stress though, Either way..go to your dentist, they can make a shield for you to keep from grinding your teeth away. Good luck hon.
