Eleven-month-old babies grind their teeth, the possible reasons are physiological factors, psychological factors, disease factors and so on.
1. Physiological factors: If a child’s teeth are in the eruption stage, his or her gums will itch and feel uncomfortable, and thus the phenomenon of teeth grinding will occur.
2. Psychological factors: If the child has been frightened before going to bed or has a poor emotional state, teeth grinding may also occur at night, which is a kind of feedback to relieve the bad mood of the behavior.
3. Disease factors: this situation is mostly seen in children with roundworm infection, because this kind of parasite will secrete a variety of toxins or the secretion discharged by the child to be absorbed, which may affect the child’s brain activity, causing stimulation of the trigeminal nerve and the symptoms of teeth grinding.
Parents are advised to take their children to the hospital to find out the cause of their teeth grinding so that targeted treatment can be carried out.
