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

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.
