A. hi dear Tooth grinding during sleep is referred to as sleep-related bruxism. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), teeth grinding is especially common in children while they sleep, since during sleep the muscles of the jaw contract. If those jaw contractions are too strong, it can cause grinding.
