You could: Be flattening your teeth, having pain in your teeth or jaws; jaws feeling tired in the morning when you wake up. I would recommend seeing your dentist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Various: You may be aware of headaches, neck aches, tension around your head, or pain in the teeth when you wake up, but most people are not aware of nocturnal grinding. Ask the person you sleep with if you make a lot of grinding noises. If you think you are grinding, see a dentist for a diagnosis and treatment to prevent damage to your teeth.
