Patient's question:
All symptoms: Onset time and cause: ? Treatment status: A 1-year-old baby has been grinding his teeth recently; is it due to calcium deficiency? Help needed: What kind of calcium supplement should be taken?Doctor's answer:
It is generally believed to be related to the following factors:1. Parasites in the intestines, especially roundworms, which survive by absorbing nutrients from the human body. When active in the stomach, they can cause abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and in severe cases, intestinal obstruction. In some cases, they may also lead to bruxism (teeth grinding) at night.
2. Excessive fatigue during the day or excessive mental excitement, especially in children who have played too hard. After falling asleep, the cerebral cortex does not get complete rest, and some nerves remain in an excited state, which can also cause bruxism during sleep.
3. Poor gastric digestion. Due to certain reasons, such as stomach problems, the digestive function of the stomach cannot effectively break down food, leading to bruxism after falling asleep.
4. Malocclusion of the teeth and other issues.
