Mouth biting : This is a lot easer said then done. I find that most of the time it's done at night in rem sleep and can not be stopped.Bi have had some success with a night guard. If its occurring during day you must try to stop the habit.

Depends on the cause: If its cheek biting, it can sometimes be resolved with a bite adjustment. Best to see your dentist for an evaluation. Hope this helps.
