Teeth grinding in kids is more than a dental issue — it's a window into the nervous system. In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel breaks down why teeth grinding happens, why common interventions often don't stick, and what the correct sequence of care actually looks like. He explains how nervous system dysregulation and spinal subluxation are the true root cause, why structural fixes like palate expanders and mouth guards can only go so far without addressing the neurospinal system first, and how to know your child is genuinely getting better — not just temporarily improved.
