Hi there

Please may I suggest that you get into the habit of locking your posts? You will find that you get many more replies if you do.

Here is a link for simple steps on how to do this:

its supposed to stop clenching your jaws but not sure if it will help the clicking. I am not aware of clenching my jaws but i do wake up with painful jaw so i must do it in my sleep. Mine is more a crunching noise like someone is crunching a packet of crisps in my ears, that and tinnitus constantly ringing in my ears, I'm lucky if I get any sleep at all for the noise.

Did your dentist not just make you a mouth guard? Mine made me one.
