Question
My baby has been grinding teeth lately, making a loud, clicking sound that is quite concerning. We have been giving them cod liver oil and calcium supplements as prescribed. The onset of the problem: it’s been a week now. Detailed laboratory test results: What measures should I take?
Answer
Hello, generally speaking, we recommend that you temporarily stop giving your baby cod liver oil and calcium supplements and visit a regular hospital for a detailed examination to clarify the cause and implement symptomatic treatment. According to your description, there are many factors that can cause oral malodor, such as dysfunction of saliva gland secretion, endocrine dysfunction, and certain gastrointestinal diseases, etc. We suggest you first go to the hospital’s dental department for a detailed examination to rule out oral diseases. If after excluding oral diseases, you then go to the hospital’s internal medicine department for further detailed examination.
