How to treat a five-year-old child who grinds his teeth while sleeping

Recently, many children have started to grind their teeth while sleeping, especially some five or six-year-old children. Grinding teeth while sleeping may be caused by symptoms of disorder in our internal organs. Regulating our own gastrointestinal tract can help us achieve good healing effects. I believe everyone wants to know more about how to treat a five-year-old child's teeth grinding while sleeping. Let me introduce it.

If your child grinds his teeth while sleeping, you should pay attention to the following situations: intestinal worms, calcium deficiency, high nervous excitability, overeating, abnormal brain discharge, gastroesophageal reflux disease, malocclusion of teeth, etc.

Suggestions:

1. Enterohelminthes disease. You can check your stool to see if you can find worm eggs. If you have intestinal worms, you need to deworm.

2. Calcium deficiency. Trace elements can be checked to clarify. If you are calcium deficient, please supplement calcium and vitamin D in time.

3. High nerve excitability. Especially if you have played too excitedly before going to bed. If this is the case, it is recommended not to allow your child to play too excitedly in the two hours before going to bed.

4. Eating too much before going to bed. If this is the case, you need to avoid eating too much before bed.

5. The possibility of abnormal brain discharges should also be ruled out. If there is abnormal brain discharge, active treatment is needed.

6. It is also necessary to rule out the possibility of gastroesophageal reflux disease. You need to ask a gastroenterologist or a gastroesophageal reflux specialist to rule out this condition.

7. Uneven teeth. You need to consult a local dentist, and if necessary, you may need braces to make your teeth straight.

The above are some very good methods on how to treat five-year-old children's sleep grinding. Eating some foods such as apples and carrots can help us achieve good therapeutic effects. At the same time, try not to stay up late. Staying up late may cause endocrine disorders among us, which will increase our chances of sleep grinding.
