I clench while i sleep and my front tooth is hurting a lot late. is this because of the clenching?

Probably: You need to see a dentist and have your bite checked as well as x-rays to see if something else is causing the tooth ache. You probably need some type of night time appliance to reduce your clenching and damage to your teeth.
