Q.

#asktheexpert my six years old daughter opens her mouth while sleeping

1 Answer

A. It is common for children to sleep with their mouths open, especially if they are congested or have nasal blockage. However, if your 6-year-old daughter regularly sleeps with her mouth open, it could be due to issues like enlarged tonsils or adenoids, allergies, or chronic nasal congestion. Breathing through the mouth during sleep can lead to dry mouth, snoring, and sometimes even poor sleep quality. To help her, consider addressing any underlying issues like allergies or colds. Using a humidifier in her room and ensuring good nasal hygiene may help. If this continues or if you notice other signs like snoring, difficulty breathing, or frequent dry mouth, it's a good idea to consult a pediatrician or an ENT specialist for further evaluation.
