"When kids get into a grind"

Bruxism, commonly known as tooth grinding, usually occurs while the youngster is sleeping.
Children are most prone to grinding their teeth between the ages of 2 and 3, when the last
of their primary teeth come in, and between the ages of 9 and 12, when the last of their
permanent teeth are erupting. Once children have all their primary teeth or most of their
permanent teeth, the grinding usually comes to a half. If after the age of 10 to 11 the grinding
has not significantly lessened, that is a sign that the bite is incorrect and an orthodontic exam
should be performed. Although the sound of grinding teeth can be quite disconcerting to the
ears of parents, the habit can be ignored under the age of 6 — unless there is a change in
the appearance of primary (baby) teeth. Once most of the permanent teeth are erupted (age
11-13) or the final permanent teeth have their eruption paths, and grinding has not stopped,
the orthodontist should be consulted. Misaligned teeth or stress could be the root of the
problem.

Orthodontics is a special kind of dentistry involving the diagnosis, prevention and treatment
of dental and facial irregularifies.The practice of orthodontics involves the design, application,
selection and control of corrective appliances to treat and correct these problems.

Parents with any orthodontic concerns for their child should consult an orthodontist concerning
the need for orthodontic treatment. As a dental specialist, an orthodontist has elected to
limit his practice to this specific area or expertise and has received additional training by an
accredited dental school for advanced education.
