Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, is a common condition and habit that can develop at any age. Common symptoms of a teeth grinding problem include:
- Frequent jaw pain and headaches
- Tense jaw and neck muscles
- Chipped and fractured teeth
- Lip or cheek lesions
- Loose or shifting teeth
- Extremely sensitive teeth
- Sleep disruptions
- Worn tooth enamel
- Intermittent pain that feels like an earache
When teeth grinding occurs with younger children, the effects can be more pronounced as the teeth start to wear down before they are fully formed.
The American Academy of Dentistry recommends a checkup once every six months, and this visit usually includes a teeth cleaning. Dr. Sina and the Kids Tooth Drs are ready to see your child within six months after their first tooth comes in, or during the year your child turns 1, whichever is sooner.
The first dental visit is the ideal time to build a relationship with Dr. Sina and her friendly staff so your child feels less intimidated about coming to the office for teeth cleanings and other procedures. After that, Dr. Sina will see your child at least once every six months.
Dr. Sina and her staff take the time to educate your child about the importance of daily brushing and flossing.
She might recommend a certain type of toothbrush based on your child’s oral health condition and encourage you to serve as an example with a daily brushing and flossing routine. This is the best way to keep your child’s teeth and gums clean and healthy between cleanings at Dentistry for Children.
Getting your child on a regular schedule of teeth cleanings is critical for maintaining optimal oral health at any age. However, the team at Dentistry for Children understands your schedule can get busy and you might miss the ideal date for an appointment.
