Re: [pws-autism] teeth grinding

Hi Holly,
 
I'm Terri - Mom to Patrick, age 10.  He has severe autism so he's completely non-verbal, cognitively age one and still in diapers.  Patrick grinds his teeth also during the day when he's mad.  We haven't done anything about this either b/c Patrick also wouldn't keep a mouth guard in.  I'm not able to help you, but just wanted to let you know I'm out here in Kansas if you ever need anything!

Subject: [pws-autism] teeth grinding

Hi everyone - I am new to this site. I have a 15 year old daughter with
PWS and autism. She is grinding her teeth at such a great rate that her
dentist said by the time she is 30 she will have no teeth. So far he
has no way of preventing this as she functions at about a 2 year old
level and will not leave a mouth guard in. Wondering if anyone else has
enountered this problem. Holly

Thanks, Dr. Gourash! Those web sites look interesting. We had a vibrating chew toy when Patrick was little that he seemed to like. ... From: Linda Gourash ...
