Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Bruxism can cause the teeth to wear off that can lead to sensitivity of teeth and sore gums and mouth.
You should get a lower plate also prepared as it will help in avoiding wearing of teeth.
Also if yo are in stress you do regular meditation and yoga.
You can also consult a Psychologist and get proper counselling done.
Along with it you can do Magic mouthwash gargles as it will help in reducing pain and inflammation inside mouth..
Drink plenty of water..

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Honey Arora
