Leave it as such as and forget the same way you wear specs. Teeth will become used to it themselves.
Health Tips
People with habit of bruxism (grinding teeth to each other and clinching jaws unknowingly) should put a wooden pencil between jaws when they are working with very high degree of concentration. The brain hates and remembers the sound of a crushing wooden pencil or scraping sound of metal on floor. This will help as habit breaking appliance.
