Bruxismul la copii, la o lună de la începerea școlii: cum îl recunoști și ce soluții există

As the school year begins, many parents notice their children grinding their teeth at night, a condition known as bruxism. Dr. Răzvan Boberis explains that this phenomenon often arises from the stress children experience during the transition to a new school routine. While not a cause for alarm, it should be monitored. Bruxism in children typically stems from emotional tension rather than dental issues. Parents may observe characteristic grinding sounds, morning headaches, or jaw pain. Solutions include using a custom night guard and establishing a calming bedtime routine. Occasional bruxism is common and usually resolves as children adapt, but frequent episodes warrant a dental consultation.
