Mouth guard: If this happens a lot, you may be grinding your teeth. Your dentist can fit you with a night guard which will not allow you to bite your tongue.

Need checkup: Forceful biting of the tongue at nighttime while asleep and without you apparently waking up immediately as it happens may be an indication of a nocturnal seizure disorder and the reason you don't awaken could be that you are what we call POST-ICTAL afterward. Do you ever find blood on the pillowcase, sheets, or dried blood on the lips? Wanna talk more? www.healthtap.com/drsaghafi
