A lot of times clicking can be dealt with by making a mouthguard to wear while you sleep. The clicking is because the piece of cartilage (between your skull and your lower jaw) is moving around and getting "stuck". A mouthguard repositions your jaw so that the piece of cartilage is in a better place. Clicking by itself is not a big problem, but if you have pain, headaches, sore teeth, or have difficulty opening (or get stuck open), then you need a mouthguard.
