Dear
Welcome to HCM

I went through your details. Your child closes her mouth when she sleeps. Usually the opposite happens. Children often open their mouth while asleep. In this case, it is very clear that your child do not have any organic or physiological problems.

Growth, development, behavioral changes etc takes place due to constant training provided by parents, friends, society, school etc. In this aspect your child needs training. Tell your child to close the mouth and keep it closed. Make the child understand the consequences. use the methods of rewards and punishments. Your child should learn to keep the mouth shut. Through training child should learn.
