My child is two years old and always grinds their teeth at night. How is that?

Patient's question:

At two years old, she often grinds her teeth at night during her nap, making a "clicking" sound. What could be the reason?
Treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment has been administered.
Type of assistance desired: She wants to understand what's causing it and how to cure it completely?

Doctor's answer:

Children grinding their teeth may be due to parasites in the intestines, especially roundworms, caused by excessive fatigue during the day or excessive excitement, especially when children play too hard, or poor stomach digestion.
Advice: Hello, it is recommended that children relax mentally, especially 1-2 hours before taking a nap, avoid intense physical activities, pay attention to adjusting their diet, eat foods that are easy to digest and rich in nutrition, and avoid overeating at dinner. If intestinal parasites are detected, it is advisable to deworm under the guidance of a doctor. Wishing your child good health and happiness.
