through a particularly stressful exam period or who is relocating to a new school, for example, may become more prone to nighttime bruxing.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Certain developmental disorders and brain injuries may put children at particular risk for grinding their teeth.\u00a0 A pediatric dentist may suggest botulism injections to calm the facial muscles or a nighttime mouthpiece as a protective measure.\u00a0 A sudden onset of bruxism requires an evaluation of current medications.\u00a0 While bruxism is a rare side effect of certain medications, the

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is generally the cause of the grinding that dictates the treatment approach.\u00a0 A pediatric dentist may take steps to correct the child&#8217;s badly misaligned teeth.\u00a0 There are several options available, including crowning the teeth and beginning occlusal treatment.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The pediatric dentist may recommend relaxation classes, professional therapy, or special exercises if bruxing is exacerbated by stress.\u00a0 A child&#8217;s pediatrician may also prescribe muscle relaxants to alleviate jaw clenching.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When young teeth sustain significant damage, the pediatric dentist may recommend a nighttime dental appliance like a nighttime mouth guard.\u00a0 It looks similar to a mouthpiece a person might wear during sports and prevents teeth from grinding against one another.\u00a0 It is almost universally true that bite splints or bite plates prevent grinding damage, and they fulfill the same function.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact your pediatric dentist if you have questions or concerns about bruxism or
