2. There may be parasites in the intestines, which secrete a lot of toxins during their activity. These toxins can stimulate the intestines, increase the peristalsis of the bad intestines, cause indigestion, and lead to unstable sleep, making it easy to grind teeth.
3. Confusion in digestive function, grinding teeth may be due to overeating before bedtime, causing a large amount of food to flood the digestive tract and stimulate the digestive tract, stimulating the brain cells involved in digestion. Through reflex action, grinding teeth can easily occur.
