My wife has this. It manifests itself most at night while asleep. She was having headaches and not sleeping well. When the dentist saw her teeth starting to erode at points of contact and heard her descriptions of her headaches, he diagnosed the problem, and had her fitted with a splint that works much like an atheletic mouthpiece.

The headaches have subsided, and life is better. She now complains about more water in her mouth (i'm being nice about spit), and waking up with not being able to breathe as freely. She is getting used to it.
