  Well, if you do it often you will wear out your teeth faster and might cause some minor chipping of your teeth
  
  Prolong periods might put stress on your jaw joints which might lead to TM jaw pain.
  
  You can see a dentist or a GP first to see if you need to get one of the mouth guard/piece to put in your mouth when you sleep to stop the grinding.

  Effects? Wearing down of teeth enamel resulting in sensitive teeth
  
  I've only heard of two solutions.
  One is to make a mouth guard at the dentist and wear it when you sleep
  The other is to manage stress because grinding is supposedly caused by stress
