Many people believe that children who grind their teeth have a parasitic disease. In fact, there are many reasons why children grind their teeth at night. The main ones are:

1. Digestive dysfunction and irregular meals.

2. Eating too much for dinner or eating snacks too close to bedtime can cause the gastrointestinal tract to continue working hard after the child falls asleep.

3. Not paying attention to oral hygiene, not rinsing the mouth and brushing the teeth before going to bed, food residues remain between the teeth, which stimulates the periodontal nerve and causes bruxism.

4. Intestinal parasitic infections, such as roundworms, pinworms, etc.

5. Poor tooth development, especially zinc deficiency.

6. Urinary swelling.

If teeth grinding is frequent and lasts for a long time, it will damage the tooth enamel and easily cause deformation of the mandible. Therefore, if you discover that your child is grinding his teeth, you should find out the cause as soon as possible and deal with it in time to avoid adverse consequences.
