How can i stop grinding my teeth?

Usually grinding your teeth at night while you sleep is a sign of stress so your doctor can recommend a psychologist or therapist that you can talk to in order to get your stress levels under control. Meanwhile, your dentist can make you a night guard to wear to protect your teeth from damage due to the grinding. Good luck!

Less anxiety and stress will help. You can have your dentist construct a night guard appliance for you that you wear at night while you sleep so you won't grind on your teeth, it is made on a rubber or plastic platform, and washable.
