What Makes One To Rub The Tongue Against The Teeth?

I cannot stop rubbing my tongue across my bottom teeth or biting the tip of my tongue. I bit the tip and/or front side of my tongue. I continue this behavior until the soreness is too much to handle. I have OCD and ADHD, but the only side effects I experienced in the beginning was dry mouth and sleepiness. I have been on the same medication since March 2014. Just before my impacted wisdom teeth were removed May 21st 2014 I began to rub my tongue against my teeth. I am taking Vyvanse 60 MG and Zoloft 100 MG once daily in the morning.

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

Is your tooth having any sharp edges? if so then get it relified, apply Dologel oral ointement topically over the affected area on the gum, take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses, take multivitamin suplements at home, try to indulge in other activities when you feel doing this....

Take care!
