Patient's question:
[Condition Description: Six months ago, the child grinded their teeth at night and during daytime naps. Treatment and Effect: Took Intestinal Worm Clear. Desired Help: See what the problem is.]Doctor's answer:
Intestinal parasitesThe presence of intestinal parasites in children can cause abdominal pain and bruxism (teeth grinding) at night. Response strategy: If a child exhibits these symptoms, it is important to take them to the hospital for deworming and teach them to develop good hygiene habits.
Lack of calcium
Insufficient calcium in a child's body can also lead to bruxism at night. Response strategy: Supplement the child with vitamin D and calcium to promote calcium absorption and prevent bruxism.
Eating snacks at night
Children often eat snacks before going to bed, which not only increases the risk of tooth decay but also causes their digestive system to work continuously at night, leading to bruxism. Response strategy: Avoid letting children develop the habit of eating snacks before bed.
