Common causes of children:
1. Intestinal parasitic diseases, especially intestinal ascariasis, are quite common in children.
2, gastrointestinal diseases, oral diseases.
3, before going to sleep to the children to eat non-digestible food, so that after the baby sleeps may stimulate the corresponding parts of the brain, through the nerves cause the masticatory muscles continue to shrink.
4, nervous system diseases, such as psychomotor epilepsy, rickets and so on.
5. Children's mental factors such as emotional excitement, excessive fatigue or emotional stress during the day.
6, lack of vitamins, children with vitamin D deficiency rickets, due to calcium and phosphorus metabolism disorders, can cause bone decalcification, muscle soreness and autonomic disorders, often sweating, night terrors, irritability and night molars .
7, the teeth are not aligned, the masticatory muscles are too strong or long-term chewing with one side of the teeth, and the tooth occlusion is not good, temporomandibular joint dysfunction, can also cause night molars. Moreover, children with irregular teeth are often in an abnormal position in their masticatory muscles. At night, the masticatory muscles often contract unconsciously, causing molars.

In addition, if a certain thing is long-term scolded by the parents, causing depression, anxiety and anxiety, there will be nighttime grinding.
It can be seen that the molars are basically caused by certain diseases. Some children have a long time for grinding. Although they have been treated accordingly, the cerebral cortex has formed a strong conditional reflection, so the molar movement at night will not disappear immediately. It is easy to form a habitual molar, especially if the gastrointestinal disease is improved, but the gastrointestinal dysfunction still exists, so the molar movement can not be corrected in a short time, and it must be maintained for a long time to improve.
