Chapter 264 What’s wrong with children grinding their teeth?
The third issue of concern arises.
Exactly: "What's wrong with children grinding their teeth?"
As soon as this question came up, all the mothers in the live broadcast room started discussing it.
"My child also grinds his teeth, and he grinds his teeth when he goes to sleep."
"The one at my house is the same. Sometimes I get scared when I wake up at night."
"Will grinding my teeth damage them?"
"Oh my god, it turns out everyone has this problem."
…
In a blink of an eye, there are more than 100,000 comments.
Even men joined in the discussion.
"Everyone, let's listen to what Doctor Three Punches has to say."
Someone said, and then everyone replied in unison.
Wei Ping took a sip of water.
Then he said, "There are nine main aspects of teeth grinding. You can judge for yourself and go to the hospital if necessary. Some of them can be avoided as long as you pay more attention in your daily life."
Everyone was shocked to find out that there are nine reasons for teeth grinding.
Wei Ping didn't stop and continued.
"First, intestinal parasitic diseases, especially ascariasis, are quite common in children. They are easily contracted due to unsanitary diet and environment. However, these diseases are rare nowadays. If you suspect it, you can go to the hospital for a checkup. Tests such as fecal smears, imaging tests, or blood tests can also be used as auxiliary tests!"
"study……"
"study……"
"I'll take my child to see it tomorrow."
"I also think my baby has intestinal parasites."
…
"Secondly, there are gastrointestinal and oral diseases. These also need to be checked out by the hospital. If the child has symptoms such as abdominal distension and bad breath, you can go to the hospital for a checkup."
This feeling is relatively rare, and there are also relatively few messages.
"Third, feeding children indigestible foods right before bedtime can stimulate the corresponding parts of the brain even after they fall asleep, causing the chewing muscles to continue to contract through the nerves."
When this was mentioned, many people said directly: "My baby always eats at night before going to sleep. This must be the reason. I won't dare to feed him next time."
"I suspected this might be the reason before, but after hearing what Doctor Sanquan said today, it does make sense."
"This point really cannot be ignored. It seems that I will have to correct many of my child's shortcomings in the future."
"Fourth, neurological diseases, such as psychomotor epilepsy, hysteria, etc. If you have any of the above diseases, it is recommended to go to the hospital for further examination!"
Few people spoke about the fourth point, probably because no one wanted to hear about it.
It may also be that people don’t want others to know that their children have this disease.
Or comfort yourself, it must not be like this.
"Fifth, there are psychological factors such as children being emotionally agitated, overly tired, or stressed during the day. This can happen quite often. The solution is to not let children be too active during the day and try to keep them quiet."
Being active is the nature of some children.
This point resonated with some people.
Not just the mother.
Someone said: "My niece, who is six years old this year, is always climbing up the roof and tearing off the tiles! She has no time to rest for a moment and is a headache for me."
"My sister is almost six years old. She runs around all day and eats very little. I really don't know where she gets all the energy from."
"The child is too active and cannot be controlled at all!"
…
"Sixth, vitamin D deficiency. Children with vitamin D deficiency rickets experience calcium and phosphorus metabolism disorders in their bodies, which can cause bone decalcification, muscle aches, and autonomic nervous system disorders. They often experience excessive sweating, night terrors, irritability, and nighttime teeth grinding. It is recommended that children with excessive sweating and nighttime awakenings see a doctor for a checkup."
This is all Wei Ping can do. After all, he has to face so many people during the live broadcast, and he can't just give a diagnosis directly.
And it's ridiculous to make a diagnosis without even seeing the patient.
So, if you suspect the cause, go to the hospital.
If the reason is due to your lifestyle habits, then quit.
If the symptoms persist after quitting, you should pay attention to it and go to the hospital for a checkup.
"Seventh, misaligned teeth, excessive use of the chewing muscles, long-term chewing with one side of the teeth, and poor tooth occlusion can lead to temporomandibular joint dysfunction, which can also cause nocturnal teeth grinding. Moreover, children with misaligned teeth often have abnormal positions of their chewing muscles. During sleep, the chewing muscles often contract unconsciously, causing teeth grinding."
Many people have spoken about this again.
"My child is like this, with crooked teeth. I'm really worried about what he'll do in the future."
"It seems that I can only wait until the child is older before getting his teeth fixed."
"sad……"
…
Whether they have children or not, everyone is very interested in Wei Ping's commentary.
"Eighth, during the period of teeth replacement between the ages of 8 and 11, children are prone to mild teeth grinding due to itchy gums. Mild teeth grinding during this period is normal. If it is more severe, it needs treatment. After this stage, it will usually disappear on its own. If it does not disappear, it is important to pay attention to treatment."
No one has said anything about this, perhaps because there are fewer children at this stage.
"Ninth, the impact of children's mood and daily routine. Nowadays, children are often very stressed out by their studies. At the same time, many children watch thrilling fighting scenes on TV at night and play too much before going to bed. These factors can cause teeth grinding.
In addition, if you are scolded by your parents for a long time due to something, causing depression, uneasiness and anxiety, you may also experience nighttime teeth grinding.
I hope this will draw the attention of all parents, especially their children's attitudes. A good family can only raise a good child. If a child is scolded every day, his or her personality will be somewhat flawed.
Wei Ping finished speaking at nine o'clock.
"The harm of teeth grinding can be mild or severe. Mild cases can cause allergies to stimulating foods such as cold, hot, sour, and sweet foods; severe cases can lead to frequent bleeding and inflammation of the gums, loose teeth, and even tooth loss. If the triggering factors can be resolved, teeth grinding will no longer occur. I hope everyone will pay attention to this."
Finally, it said: "For the above reasons, if it involves a hospital, it is recommended to go to five departments for diagnosis and treatment, namely pediatrics, dentistry, psychiatry, psychiatry, and psychological counseling."
There are a lot of positive comments below.
"Thank you, Doctor Three Fists, for clearing up my confusion!"
"I'll take my kids there tomorrow!"
"I was too busy with work and didn't pay much attention. I didn't realize that teeth grinding can be so harmful!"
"If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have noticed that my child also grinds his teeth!"
…
The clips of Wei Ping's live broadcast were also recorded by many people and circulated online.
Someone even created a channel just for him to popularize relevant science knowledge. When he first started live streaming, his videos began to be covered across the entire network.
Even XX Live made a large cover for Wei Ping and placed it in the most conspicuous position in the live forum, as well as in all other possible places.
"That's enough about teeth grinding. Let's look at other things."
