Teeth grinding at night. More at night.

Hello, Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, is common in children, especially during sleep. Here are some suggestions to help manage your child's teeth grinding: 1. **Talk to your child's dentist**: Discuss your child's teeth grinding with their dentist during their regular check-up. The dentist can examine your child's teeth for signs of grinding and provide recommendations for treatment or management. 2. **Identify potential triggers**: Stress, anxiety, misaligned teeth, and certain medications can contribute to teeth grinding. Try to identify any potential triggers and address them accordingly. 3. **Establish a relaxing bedtime routine**: Encourage your child to unwind before bed with calming activities such as reading or taking a warm bath. Creating a soothing bedtime routine can help reduce stress and anxiety that may contribute to teeth grinding. 4. **Limit stimulating activities before bed**: Avoid giving your child caffeine or stimulating activities such as playing video games or watching TV close to bedtime, as these can increase arousal and make teeth grinding worse. 5. **Encourage proper jaw positioning**: Teach your child to keep their lips closed and their teeth slightly apart during the day to help reduce jaw tension and minimize grinding at night. 6. **Consider a mouthguard**: In some cases, your child's dentist may recommend a mouthguard or night guard to protect their teeth from the effects of grinding. This custom-fitted device is worn over the teeth during sleep and helps cushion the teeth and prevent damage. 7. **Monitor for changes**: Keep an eye on your child's teeth for signs of wear or damage, and let their dentist know if you notice any changes. Regular dental check-ups are important for monitoring the effects of teeth grinding and adjusting treatment as needed. It's important to address teeth grinding in children to prevent damage to their teeth and jaws. By taking proactive steps and working closely with your child's dentist, you can help manage their teeth grinding and promote better oral health.
