I do this without meds and i somehow managed to automatically put my tounge between my teeth. So i don't damage my teeth and my brain won't allow me to bit down hard

I do often put my tongue between my teeth in an attempt to recduce damage to my teeth, but I still bite my tongue, which I think still makes the muscle tension worse. My current approach is to open my jaw as wide as possible and hold it for like 30 seconds to stretch the muscles. It seems to kinda help, but depending on where I am, it can be kinda awkward.
