Stress and teeth grinding in children aged 8 to 11
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study looks at how stress in children and their parents might be linked to teeth grinding (bruxism) in children. If your child grinds their teeth, joining this study could help us understand the role of stress and find better ways to support families.
