Question
Nine-Month-Old Baby Grinding Teeth?
Answer
Nighttime teeth grinding in children is generally believed to be related to 1. intestinal parasites, 2. children being too excited or too tense during the day, leading to an excited state of the cerebral cortex upon falling asleep, 3. poor growth and development of teeth, such as malocclusion, overly pointed teeth, uneven bite surfaces, cavities, or periodontitis, which can cause grinding. 4. Babies in the process of teething may also grind their teeth, but this is a normal condition that does not require treatment.
