I keep biting my tongue in my sleep!

I will dream that my tongue is in pain and when I wake up, sure enough, I am laying there with my tongue in between my teeth pressing on it. It is so painful! Who knows how long I actually lay there with my tongue in between my teeth. I am not sure what can be done about this, as I am asleep when it happens so I don't have much control. Any ideas?

I am not sure what you can do about this. I have the problem that lately when I eat I keep biting into my inside lip in my mouth and that is also painful, Perhaps this can help you

No idea - do you actually make it bleed?

You refer your problem to a dentist, they may give you something that you can place to cover your teeth. If you have seen those boxers, they put something inside their mouth that protects their teeth. Funny but there maybe a smaller one that will fit in your teeth. It really hurts when you bite your tongue, it happens to me while eating how much more if unknowingly.

I can't say much maybe you should seek the services of a sleep consultant
