Pediatrician, Neurology ,  's  Response
teeth grinding otherwise called bruxism is a common problem and occurs on 10-80% among people of various ages groups. Commonly witnessed in sleep but sometimes in females seen in awake period also. In your child, it seems to be stress related due to fever and would get get away in time period. At this point of time do have no worry about its existence.
