Is Your Child Sleeping?





It is often forgotten when your child begins to struggle to sleep what other problems could be going on with them that is inhibiting them from getting a restful night. Children who struggle to sleep may become irritable, struggle to complete tasks and follow directions. But without looking further, it may be difficult to determine the cause. Children who have  severe decay may struggle to follow asleep because of dental pain.

Once they are done running and playing throughout the day, their bodies slow down. Once this happens it may give them time to focus on the pain that is now in their mouth. If your child is struggling to fall asleep at night or stay asleep, it is recommended by pediatric dentist, Dr. CameronFuller, that you take a look at their teeth, to see if there are problems that are brewing.

Cracked and decayed teeth may not be able to be seen with the naked eye, so if you have checked out your child for other problems and you don’t seem to be able to find an answer it is recommended you schedule an appointment with the dentist in order to have x-rays and your dentist take a look.
