The Causes and Treatment For Your Child’s Teeth Grinding
Teeth grinding, also called bruxism, can be a real problem for children, especially when their permanent teeth are coming through. Speak to a dentist if you think your child wakes up with headaches, as it may be a symptom of bruxism.
Key takeaways:
– Stress either at home or school can be a major contributor to a child’s teeth grinding.
– Children who are hyperactive or suffer from anxiety are more prone to bruxism.
– The pain resulting from an improper or misaligned bite may result in teeth grinding.
“After working to determine what’s causing your child’s bruxism, you may need to consider a nightly mouthguard while working to address the root cause.”
