Bruxism in mixed dentition has been seen. It will go as your child's permanent teeth erupt.
Next Steps
I suggest you meet a pedodontist and get a soft splint made which he can wear during night.

Gaps are normal as teeth are still erupting and face and jaws are still growing. Visit pedodontist (child dentist) for bruxism.
